Cinnamon Sugar Coated Blueberry Strawberry Jelly Crammed Doughnut Cake

I consider I discovered this recipe in Bake From Scratch if I’m not mistaken.  I like the thought of emulating a jelly stuffed dough in a cake.  The filling is selfmade and though I elevated the fruit within the recipe considerably and dropped the sugar by 50%, the filling I believe might nonetheless be much less candy.  I like making further jam for my morning yoghurt which is why I doubled the quantity of fruit.  I additionally used frozen fruit since contemporary could be very costly this time of yr.  I haven’t sliced the cake but since it’s for a dinner social gathering tonight.  Nonetheless, primarily based on my tasting of the jam, it’s sweeter than it must be.  I additionally diminished the sugar within the batter by 10%.  For the reason that entire cake is coated with cinnamon sugar, I didn’t assume the cake itself wanted a ton of sugar.

Hopefully it will scrumptious, we’ll discover out tonight and I’ll come again and submit the images of the slices.
