directions
1. Center a rack in oven and heat to 350 degrees. Combine berries, 1 tablespoon sugar, and a pinch of salt in a bowl and let sit 20 minutes, stirring and lightly crushing berries occasionally. Meanwhile, grease bottom and sides of a 9" round cake pan, then line with parchment and grease bottom again.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk both flours, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. In a large bowl, whisk 1 1/4 cups sugar, the eggs, and lemon zest until pale. Slowly whisk in butter until smooth and glossy, then whisk in milk and vanilla. Add flour mixture and whisk vigorously until completely smooth.
3. Scrape batter into prepared pan and scatter berries evenly over top, leaving liquid in bowl. Sprinkle cake with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar, then bake until top is firm and deep golden brown, 65 to 75 minutes, rotating halfway through.
4. Transfer pan to a wire rack and let cool 20 minutes. Run a paring knife around edge of cake to loosen, then carefully tip out of pan. Let cool completely on wire rack, at least 2 hours, before serving.
