- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
For the crumb topping:
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Equipment Needed
- 9-inch round cake pan
- Mixing bowls
- Whisk
- Rubber spatula
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Oven
Step-by-Step Instructions
First, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease your 9-inch round cake pan and set it aside. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, which usually takes about 2 to 3 minutes. This is my favorite part because the mixture smells so sweet and buttery! Next, add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until combined. Now, gradually add the dry ingredients alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Gently fold in those beautiful blueberries using a rubber spatula. It’s the moment when the batter transforms into a stunning blend of colors! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
