300x600
- ½ cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- Zest from 1 lemon (no white pith!)
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus 2 tablespoons
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 2 cups fresh ripe blueberries, picked over, rinsed and dried
- ½ cup buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon turbinado sugar for sprinkling
- Preheat oven to 325°F.
- Lightly grease and flour an 8-inch springform pan. Set
aside. - Set aside ⅓ cup of blueberries to put on top of batter
before baking, if desired. In a medium mixing bowl, toss the remaining
blueberries with 2 tablespoons flour and set aside. Make sure your berries are
dry. - In a small bowl combine 2 cups of flour, salt, and baking
powder. - In the bowl of a stand mixer combine the butter, lemon zest
and ¾ cup of sugar. Beat for several minutes, scraping down the sides as
needed, until light and fluffy. - Beat in the egg and vanilla just until incorporated.
- Add ⅓ of the flour mixture to the creamed butter and sugar.
Beat on low until incorporated. Add ⅓ of the buttermilk and blend until smooth.
Repeat adding 1/2 of the remaining flour, then ½ of the remaining buttermilk
until both are incorporated, repeat one more time. Remove the bowl from the
mixer. The batter will be very thick. - Gently fold in the floured blueberries and any extra flour
into the batter using a rubber spatula. Take care not to rupture the
blueberries. - Scoop the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Scatter the remaining 1/3 cup of blueberries on top. Sprinkle with the coarse
sugar. Bake in a 325°F preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until the top is
lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean. - Allow the cake to rest for 30-minutes before removing the
sides of the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature. Refrigerate leftovers for
longer storage. The warm cake will crumble a little more than a cooled cake but
it’s absolutely delicious.
