Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups milk
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan, then lightly dust it with flour or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined. Do not overmix.
Gently fold in the blueberries using a spatula, being careful not to crush them.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cake is completely cool, sift the powdered sugar over the top for decoration.
Slice and serve! Enjoy your Easy Blueberry Cake with a cup of tea or coffee for the perfect treat.
