Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries (or frozen)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (for topping, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add this mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with milk. Mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to crush them.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly. If desired, sprinkle the brown sugar over the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 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 about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For extra flavor, toss the blueberries in flour before adding them to the batter. Make sure your butter is softened to room temperature for a light texture.
