Prep time: 30 minutes; Bake time: 50 minutes; Serves 12

Instructions

  • Adjust oven rack to middle position and preheat oven to 350F degrees. If you are using a dark baking pan or glass baking dish, reduce the heat by 25 degrees.
  • Grease a 9 x 13″ baking dish with cooking spray and line with parchment paper or dust with flour.
  • Whisk 2 cups of flour, baking powder and salt together in a medium bowl.
  • With an electric mixer, beat butter and sugars on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, beating until just incorporated.
  • Reduce speed to medium and beat in one-third of the flour mixture until incorporated.
  • Beat in half of the milk. Beat in half of the remaining flour mixture, then remaining milk, and finally remaining flour mixture. Scrap down the bowl after each addition.
  • Toss 1/2 cup of blueberries with 1 teaspoon of flour.
  • Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the blueberries into the batter.
  • Spread the batter into the prepared pan.

Topping

  • For the topping, scatter the blueberries over the top of the batter.
  • Sir sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl and sprinkle over the batter. Bake in the 350F preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
  • Cool the cake in pan for 20 minutes. Lift the cake up using the edges of the parchment paper and place on a cutting board. Slice the cake into 12 portions.

Serve warm or at room temperature. This cake can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
