How to cook deliciously - Blueberry Cake

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Position a rack in the center and lightly butter an 8-inch springform pan and dust with flour.

2. Stage

Mix the flour with baking powder and salt: In a medium bowl, vigorously whisk together 1 cup of the flour with the baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.

3. Stage

Make the batter: Using an electric mixer, beat the butter on medium high speed for 2 minutes. Add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy, a 1 to 2 minutes more. Beat in the vanilla extract. Add the eggs one at a time and beat until well blended, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Beat in the lemon zest, if using. Reduce the speed of the mixer to low and slowly add the flour mixture, beating until smooth. The batter will be thick.

4. Stage

Put the batter in the pan: Put the batter in the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

5. Stage

Scatter the berries over the batter: Combine the berries with the remaining teaspoon of flour and the lemon juice in a bowl. Spoon the berry mixture over the batter.

6. Stage

Bake: Bake for 45 to 55 minutes at 350°F, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Carefully slide a thin knife around the edges of the cake to release it from the pan.

7. Stage

Dust with powdered sugar to serve: Transfer the cake to a platter, berry side up. Dust the cake with powdered sugar to serve.
