Greetings!
Yesterday Mr. M. and I had to drive to Eugene. We both had doc appt. Me for my ears and Mr. M. for a scan on his back.
I like down town Eugene. It's a college town so there is lots of young energy with great little shops and eateries. Getting there however is traffic chore. LOL
The medical center is downtown and as we looked over the city from the top of the parking garage it was full of life. Everyone! wore a mask. The people walking or riding bikes all following the rules.
It was a nice to see no one was upset about it. Not like in my town. The sun was shinning hot and it was a lovely day.
Today I have a 9 zillion things to do so here is what I wanted to share. The recipe for Blueberry cake. It is a very thick cake batter and once I added the frozen blueberries I had to press the mix into the pan. I thought, "Oh this is not going to bake well." On the contrary it is one of the best cakes I have made with fruit in it. I wanted to share it with you.
For the topping I made a basic crumble topping.
For the cake
1/2 cup soften butter
2 cups granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups AP flour
2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp salt
2/3 cup milk
2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries.
1 make the topping and set aside.
Lightly grease and flour 9x13" cake pan.
Pre heat oven 350°F (180°C)
In a smaller bowl mix dry ingredients. Set aside.
Beat butter and sugar in large bowl until blended and creamy. Add egg and vanilla. Beat until blended and creamy.
Add 1/3 flour mixture to wet and beat just until blended.
Add half of the milk, beat just until blended. Continue alternating flour and milk until it's all blended. Add the Blueberries, (you can use other fruits you have on hand.)
Pour into pan and press into the corners. Add the topping.
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes. Check the cake to make sure it is done. In my over I had to bake for 55 minutes.
This is my new go to cake recipe, it is that good.
Hope you give this a try.
