Blueberry Cake

 

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup (1/2 stick) butter, room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cup flour plus 1 ½ tbsp
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • Dash of salt
  • ¾ cup plus 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp grated orange zest
  • 1 tbsp non fat yogurt
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 ½ cups blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat over to 350F. Pam a 9" square pan. Dust with flour and put in freezer.
  2. Mix flour, baking powder and salt. Cream butter and ¾ cup sugar in the mixer (use the paddle) until light and fluffy. Add egg, vanilla and orange zest. Stir in yogurt and milk and mix.
  3. Transfer batter to chilled pan. Sprinkle remaining sugar on top. I like to add some cinnamon as well. Bake 25-30 minutes or until cake tester comes out clean.

Additional Notes

You can replace ½ cup wheat flour with almond flour. It will enrich the cake and make it taste more moist. Dick is allergic to nuts so I can't do it…
