Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or a square 8x8-inch pan and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, whole milk, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth and well combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the fresh blueberries and lemon zest using a spatula. Be careful not to crush the blueberries too much.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula or spoon.
In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and ground cinnamon together. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the batter to create a slightly caramelized and spiced top layer.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cool, dust the top with powdered sugar if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature with a cup of tea or coffee.
