Fortunately, a break in the weather made it possible for me to turn on the oven and do a little baking. This easy strawberry cake is a terrific way to use those not so perfect berries in the fridge. Don&#8217;t limit yourself to just strawberries &#8211; you can use peaches, blueberries or a mix of the three! It&#8217;s delicious and a perfect dessert to tote to a picnic or cookout. <!--more--><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1\/4 cup + 2 tablespoons butter<\/li>\n<li>8 oz. strawberries, cut into 1\/2&#8243; pieces<\/li>\n<li>1 cup + 2 tablespoons granulated sugar &#8211; divided<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup milk<\/li>\n<li>3 tablespoons lemon juice<\/li>\n<li>1 large egg<\/li>\n<li>1 tablespoon lemon zest<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon baking powder<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 teaspoon kosher salt<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/li>\n<li>1 1\/2 cups flour<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol>\n<li>Preheat oven to 350\u00ba.
