Madeleine's Whatever Cake

I often make this little cake for the Wednesday morning Connections
group at International House, and though it's always different,
depending on what fruit is in season, the basic recipe is the
same. I use only 1/2 cup of sugar, but taste the batter and add
more, if you like. Its magic is its intense butter flavor
from only half a stick. Have fun experimenting with
variations!
Madeleine's Whatever Cake
Preheat oven 350
Melt 1/2 stick butter in pan.
Combine:
1 Cup Flour
1/2 - 1 Cup Sugar
1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 Teaspoon Baking Soda
Pinch of Salt
Stir in:
1 Cup Buttermilk (or 1 Teaspoon vinegar/lemon juice in 1 Cup Whole
Milk)
Pour batter on top of melted butter without stirring. Top with 1
Cup Berries or Sliced Fruit in season; sprinkle with Sugar and
Cinnamon. Bake 25-35 minutes or until skewer comes out
clean.
