Ingredients

Scale

For the Topping:

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter

For the Cake:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. Make the Topping: In a saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar over medium heat. Stir until combined. Pour this mixture into the prepared pan and arrange the sliced strawberries on top.
  3. Mix the Cake Batter: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, add the milk and vanilla extract.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Bake the Cake: Pour the batter over the strawberries in the pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool and Flip: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully flip it onto a serving plate.
