Marys Blueberry Cake Recipes

SIMPLE BLUEBERRY CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line the base of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper cut to fit inside. Butter the sides of the pan to prevent the cake from sticking.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 ¾ cups of the flour with the baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Stir them together with a whisk.
• In a medium mixing bowl, combine the maple syrup and butter and beat together with a whisk. Add the eggs and beat well, then add the buttermilk and vanilla. Mix well. (If the butter solidifies in contact with cold ingredients, gently warm the mixture in the microwave in 30 second bursts, then stir again.)
• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix with a big spoon, just until combined (a few lumps are ok). In a small bowl, toss 2 cups of the blueberries with the remaining 1 teaspoon flour (this helps prevent the blueberries from sinking to the bottom). Gently fold the blueberries into the batter. The mixture will be thick, but don't worry.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Distribute the remaining blueberries on top, focusing them more toward the center of the cake. Sprinkle the top of the blueberries with the turbinado sugar.
• Bake for 34 to 38 minutes, until the cake is golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (blueberry bits aside). Place the cake on a cooling rack to cool. Before releasing the springform sides, you might need to run a butter knife along the outer edge of the cake to loosen it from the pan.
• Serve as desired. Store leftover cake covered, at room temperature for 2 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Or, freeze leftover cake for up to 3 months.

BLUEBERRY CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8x8 inch (or equivalent) pan with baking spray. Set aside.
• In a bowl cream together the butter and 1/2 cup sugar. Add in the salt and vanilla, and mix again to combine.
• Next, separate the egg yolks from the egg whites. Reserve the whites. Add the egg yolks to the butter and sugar mixture. Beat to combine.
• In a small bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour with the baking powder. Add this mixture to the egg yolk mixture alternating with the milk. Coat the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour. Add to the batter and fold gently to combine.
• In a medium bowl, beat the egg white to form soft peaks. Add in 1/4 cup of sugar slowly, and beat to form stiff peaks. Fold this into the batter.
• Pour the batter into the prepared ban. Sprinkle the top with 1 tablespoon sugar.
• Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.

MARY'S BLUEBERRY CAKE

Steps:

• Mix butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla together. Mix flour, baking powder, and salt together. Reserve 1/2 cup of flour. Add the remaining flour to the sugar/egg mixture. Stir till mixed. Add the remaining 1/2 cup flour and the blueberries. You want the flour to coat the blueberries so they will not get too mushy.
• Be sure to grease the Bundt cake pan very well with shortening and coat with flour so that it will come out of the pan easily. Bake at 325°F for 1 hour and 10 minutes in a Bundt pan. According to your oven you may have to cook the cake about five minutes longer. Let it sit about 15-20 minutes before you take it out of the pan.

BLUEBERRY LOAF CAKE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C Fan oven. Grease a 900g/2lb loaf tin then line the base and ends with grease proof paper.
• Put the butter, sugar, flour, eggs and vanilla extract into a large bowl and beat with an electric hand mixer for 5 minutes until pale and creamy - the mixture will be very thick.
• Spread one-quarter of the mix into the tin, then scatter over a third of the fruit.
• Carefully dot and spread another quarter of the cake mix on top, and scatter with another third of the fruit, repeat this step.
• Finally dot the rest of the cake mix over and gently spread with the back of a spoon.
• Bake for 1 hour until an inserted skewer comes out clean, then leave to cool.
• Mix the icing sugar and soft cheese to make the frosting then smooth onto the top of the cake. I normally start with 100g of soft cheese and add as much icing sugar as I think it needs.
