Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 240 grams all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 120 milliliters whole milk
- 200 grams fresh or frozen blueberries
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease or line a 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three parts, alternating with the milk in two parts. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
Gently fold in the blueberries, 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 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, dust the top with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy!
