Description

A moist tender cake that is bursting with fresh blueberries and spiced with cinnamon powder. I always get requests to bake the cake for gatherings or dinner parties.

Ingredients
 

For the cake batter:

  • ½ cup / 1 stick butter
  • 21/4 cups cake flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup milk I used semi-skimmed milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg white
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

For the filling:

  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder
  • A couple of blueberries to garnish the cake

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F.Place a rack in the center of the oven.
  • Grease a round 27 cm/10.5 inchesspringform pan with a piece of butter and line the bottom and edges with a piece of parchment paper.
  • For the filling, combine the blueberries, sugar and cinnamon powder. Set aside.

For the cake batter:

  • Combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  • Cream the butter and sugar in an electric mixer for 2 minutes.
  • Add the egg, egg white and vanilla extract and continue beating on high speed for 2 minutes.
  • Reduce the speed to very low and slowly add the milk and flour and mix just to integrate the batter.
  • With a rubber spatula, scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix slowly one more time.
  • Spread half of the batter onto the greased lined springform pan. Sprinkle the blueberry filling, fully covering the batter.
  • Spread the remaining batter on top, fully covering the blueberries.
  • Bake in the oven about 45-50 minutes, or until you insert a toothpick in the center of the cake and it comes out clean. Enjoy it!
