Ingredients

Scale

Fruits

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Dairy & Eggs

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup sugar

Flavorings & Fats

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil or melted butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients and preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease or line a baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt to evenly distribute the leavening agents and seasoning throughout the batter.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Then, stir in the Greek yogurt and vegetable oil or melted butter until well combined.
  4. Incorporate Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing just enough to combine without overworking the batter, which helps keep the cake tender and moist.
  5. Add Blueberries: Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, distributing them evenly throughout the batter while avoiding breaking them to prevent color bleeding.
  6. Bake and Cool: Pour the batter into your prepared pan and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use eggs and yogurt at room temperature for better mixing and rise.
  • Stir the batter just until combined to keep the cake soft and fluffy.
  • Toss blueberries in a little flour before folding in to prevent them from sinking.
  • Check oven temperature early by testing the cake around 30 minutes to avoid overbaking.
  • Use fresh, ripe blueberries for the best flavor and juiciness.
