Steps
In a bowl, mix the sugar with the egg, 1 tbsp of water, and the oil using an electric whisk. Add the buckwheat flour, rice flour, potato starch, and the baking powder, already sifted, plus a pinch of salt. Continue to knead by hand if necessary, to obtain an elastic dough. Wrap the obtained dough in plastic wrap and put it in the fridge for about half an hour.
On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough to a thickness of 0.2 inches. Line a 9-inch tart pan with parchment paper and place the dough. Trim any excess dough with a knife.
Make a hole in the center of the tart using a 2.4-inch cookie cutter, remove the cut-out dough, but leave the cookie cutter. Knead the shortcrust pastry scraps and roll them out with a rolling pin, creating a strip as tall as the tart edges. Wrap it around the cookie cutter, forming the inner edge of the dessert. Seal the edge well to the base of the cake, then prick it with a fork. If you find this preparation too complicated, leave the tart as is; it will still taste good. Bake in the oven at 350°F for about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool before removing the cookie cutter and then the base from the mold
Prepare the cream by mixing yogurt with cream cheese, berry jam, and powdered sugar in a bowl. Fill the tart with a layer of mixed berries jam, then with the yogurt cream. Refrigerate for about an hour. Then completely cover the surface of the cake with blackberries, decorating with a few mint leaves just before serving
Preservation and Variation of the Blackberry Shortcrust Bundt Cake
The bundt cake, once completely cooled, can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days. For longer preservation, you can wrap it in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and store it in the refrigerator. This way, it will stay fresh and tasty for up to a week
Add grated lemon or orange zest to the shortcrust dough and a few drops of essence.
If you are intolerant to eggs, you can use banana or apple puree as a substitute.
Use plant-based milk (rice, oat, almond) or lactose-free cow’s milk.
