Come on over to my house and you’re sure to be offered a cup of coffee and a sweet treat.
It’s probably a southern thing or perhaps just the way I was raised. My grandmother was notorious for always having a fresh batch of oatmeal cookies or apple pie made from scratch on the table. If I close my eyes and think back, I can almost smell those buttery apples infused with cinnamon. I wish I could make an apple pie as good as hers.
I was recently asked by The J.M. Smucker Company to share the new Smucker’s® Fruit & Honey Fruit Spreads with you and am excited to share my recipe for blueberry lemon spice cake which uses the Blueberry Lemon Smucker’s® Fruit & Honey Fruit Spread. This delightful cake is so easy to make and reminds me of my grandma.
I do things a little different than my grandmother and use more shortcuts in the kitchen. I’m a huge supporter of semi-homemade recipes. Semi-homemade recipes are perfect for busy moms who are trying to juggle it all.
Ingredients:
- your favorite spice cake mix
- Smucker’s® Blueberry Lemon Fruit & Honey Fruit Spread
- powdered sugar
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare your favorite spice cake mix in a 9×13 pan, according to package directions.
Step 2: Remove from oven, and while cake is still warm use a fork to poke holes into the top of the cake.
Step 3: Use a spoon to spread the top of the cake with Smucker’s® Blueberry Lemon Fruit & Honey Fruit Spread.
Step 4: You’ll need about 1 – 1 1/2 cups of the Fruit & Honey Fruit Spread. Don’t be skimpy.
Step 5: Sift some powdered sugar over the cake and serve.
I told you this was easy.
Smucker’s Fruit & Honey Fruit Spread is made with real fruit. I love all the whole blueberries in the Blueberry Lemon variety. There are four flavors available- Triple Berry, Blueberry Lemon, Tropical and Strawberry.
All flavors have been naturally sweetened with honey, which gives the jam a lovely bright flavor and the perfect texture for spreading over a cake or onto an English muffin or toast. Of course, these are perfect for good old fashioned PB&J sammies. The three I have tried are wonderfully delicious. I love this stuff. The spreads have such a lovely flavor with just the right amount of honey.
I found the Fruit & Honey Fruit Spread at my local Walmart on the jelly isle. It should be readily available at most grocery stores, should you want to pick some up.
Don’t you just love a good snack cake and one that’s easy to make? This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of JM Smuckers. The opinions and text are all mine.
