Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries (or frozen)
- 1 tablespoon flour (to toss blueberries)
Preparation Steps
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a round cake pan with parchment paper.
- Prepare the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Cream the butter and sugar: In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add eggs and vanilla: Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Mix in dry ingredients and milk: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined.
- Fold in the blueberries: Toss the blueberries with a tablespoon of flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom during baking. Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
