The One Bowl FRESH Strawberry Cake Everyone Is OBSESSED With

Published about 2 months ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader!

As someone who adamantly loves chocolate, it takes a lot for me to want to choose a fruity cake over something so deeply rich and decadent.

But this one bowl strawberry cake does just that. Now, when developing it, I really wanted a strawberry cake that had basically the fruity punch of flavor that you get when biting into a fresh strawberry.

And I also wanted it to be made with only fresh strawberries and no strawberry reduction. This was quite a feat, because even in the traditional baking space, they usually call for strawberry reduction if they weren't using strawberry pudding flavoring.

But this strawberry cake is truly one of a kind. It uses only fresh strawberries blended into a puree for that gorgeous subtle pink color in the cake, making it super easy for beginner bakers.

And you just need a bowl and a whisk! It couldn't be easier :) Save this one for any spring occasion, or even Easter coming around the corner!

One Bowl Fresh Vegan Strawberry Cake

The color of that frosting is just irresistible! And you can even make it as a sheet cake!

Other reader-favorite fresh cake recipes:

Moist Lemon Blueberry Cake

This one I cannot stop raving about- I developed it nearly 7 years ago now, and it still stands up as one of my all time favorite spring cake recipes. I make it every year for Easter, and it's an absolute smash every time!

One Bowl Lemon Raspberry Cake

I love that you can either fold in fresh or frozen raspberries, or swirl it with my homemade preserves recipe- either works!

Easy Blackberry Lavender Sheet Cake

The lavender adds such a beautiful floral note that actually really enhances the fruitiness throughout the cake. Don't worry- it's light and spring-like, as it should be!

Hope these recipes bring a smile to your face- spring is right around the corner, we're nearly there (says someone who just moved back to the Northeast 3 weeks ago and had 3 solid snowstorms in that time ha!).

scoopable s'mores cookie

Hey Reader! Okay… I finally understand the scoopable cookie obsession. For the longest time, I didn’t get it. I was waffling for a while between sharing a cookie skillet or a scoopable cookie recipe, which for those not on social media, you may be wondering (and rightfully so):Scoopable cookie?? Essentially a cookie baked in a skillet? WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?!Like, why not just make a cookie skillet? But now I see the difference. Scoopable cookies means softer dough, baked just enough, and...

Hi Reader! Okay, so I wasn't planning on making this...but then I just couldn't stop thinking about cookie dough and NEEDED to try. So I tested something a little unhinged (in the BEST way): Small Batch Cookie Dough Cheesecake We have a 'buttery' soft cookie dough crust with a rich, creamy cheesecake folded with chunks of edible cookie dough and finished with a 2-ingredient chocolate ganache and more edible cookie dough!! And everyone went nuts for it on Instagram. Small Batch Cookie Dough...

sweet potato curry in a bowl

Hi Reader! If dinner has been feeling a little repetitive lately, you’re not alone (hi, that was me right before our big move!!). I’ve been in that exact loop—defaulting to the same easy meals on autopilot. But since moving, I've been really challenging myself to make the family something way more exciting... While also keeping it somehow insanely simple! Here are 3 dinners I’m making on repeat right now: For tonight- easy, but tastes restaurant-worthy: Crispy Herbed Tofu Bowls with Roasted...
