Melted Gelato Summer Cake

Part cake and part cobbler, this gently sweet dessert is irresistibly dense and moist, thanks to using melted gelato in lieu of sugar and milk. Top each slice with an extra spoonful of frozen gelato.

Method

Preheat the oven to 350F.


Lightly oil a 9-inch round cake pan.


In a large bowl, whisk together melted gelato, oil and eggs.


Whisk in flour and baking powder until just combined, and then fold in half of the fruit.


Pour batter into the prepared pan and top with remaining fruit.


Bake until cake is deep golden brown around the edges and just springs back when touched in the middle, about 50 minutes.


Set aside to cool for 20 minutes, and then loosen edges with a paring knife and transfer to a plate (loosen the bottom with a spatula, too, if needed).


Serve warm or at room temperature.


(NOTE: This cake gets better over time, so feel free to make it a day or two ahead. Just be sure to cool the cake completely, and then cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.)
