Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup raw fine sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extra
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
Streusel:
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • pinch salt
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter

Equipment

  • 9 x 9 inch baking pan (22 cm)
  • stand mixer

Method
 

Cake:
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.   
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. Using a stand mixer, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, vanilla, and lemon zest.
  4. Slowly add dry ingredients alternating with milk, beating well after each addition. As a general rule, start and end with the flour mixture. Be careful not to over mix the batter, as it will make the cake dense.
  5. Fold in the blueberries and spread into the 9"x 9" square pan or a round cake pan, lined with parchment paper.
Streusel:
  1. In a small bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt for the streusel. Then cut butter into flour mixture using a fork or panstry blender until it's crumbly. Sprinkle over the batter.
  2. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted.
