Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it out evenly.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Once cooled, dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar if desired.
  11. Slice and serve the blueberry buttermilk breakfast cake. Enjoy!

Notes

  • For best results, use fresh blueberries. You can also substitute frozen blueberries, but be sure to thaw and drain them before adding to the batter.
  • Dusting the cake with powdered sugar is optional but adds a sweet finishing touch.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
