Preparation
Step 1
How do you bake a sweet kefir berry batter cake in the oven? Prepare the necessary ingredients. The fattier the kefir, the tastier the cake will be. However, 1% kefir will also work very well. You can use either fresh or frozen berries. Take the frozen berries out of the refrigerator so they thaw slightly. Crack the eggs into a bowl. Add the sugar and a pinch of salt. This is done to improve the flavor of the future cake.
Step 2
Pour the kefir into the bowl.
Step 3
Using a mixer, beat all the ingredients on medium speed for 5–7 minutes into a smooth mixture filled with air bubbles.
Step 4
Add the baking soda and vanilla sugar. Vanilla sugar can be replaced with vanilla. There is no need to additionally activate the baking soda with vinegar or citric acid, because the kefir will do this perfectly.
Step 5
Add the wheat flour, sifted through a sieve, preferably twice. This will enrich it with oxygen, and the finished cake will turn out airier.
Step 6
Mix the batter once more with a mixer on medium speed for 3–4 minutes. The mixture should become very airy, with air bubbles actively rising to the surface.
Step 7
Pour the batter into a baking pan, after greasing the bottom with sunflower oil.
Step 8
Scatter the slightly thawed berries over the top in a random pattern. Bake the cake for 40–45 minutes. Check the cake for doneness by piercing it in the center with a wooden toothpick. If it comes out completely dry, with no batter residue, the cake is ready. It should also be nicely golden.
