The Complete Idiot’s Guide To The Very Best Blueberry Cake

The Very Best Blueberry Cake

>
>

As my regular readers know, I love sweets, desserts and cakes, but I do not like to prepare them, so when I do prepare a sweet dish, it must be quick , simple and easy.
This cake batter definitely fits into that category. No machines needed, no mess in the kitchen and the whole preparation does not take more than 10 minutes at most.
Yet, the result is absolute culinary delight 🙂
Use any fruit you might like and have available, such as any berries, stone fruit, halved grapes, even bananas, etc. Just make sure you don’t overcook the cake. Unfortunately, the old toothpick test does not work for this type of cake, so you must rely on your touch. If you are still not sure, remove a small piece from the center to check, then replace it right away and let the cake cool down to room temperature. (Don’t worry, the castor sugar will hide this little sin 🙂
