Buttery Blueberry Cake

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, lemon zest, nutmeg and salt until well combined.

2. 2

   Pour the milk, melted butter, beaten egg and vanilla into the flour mixture. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat everything together until well blended, about two minutes. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in a tough, dense cake.

3. 3

   Grease a 13x9-inch baking dish with butter or baking spray. Pour the batter into the baking dish and spread it evenly with a mini offset spatula or a butter knife.

4. 4

   Scatter the blueberries evenly across the top of the batter.

5. 5

   In a bowl, whisk together the sugar and flour for the streusel topping. Pour in the melted butter and toss together with a fork until the mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the blueberries.

6. 6

   Bake the cake until lightly browned, about 35-40 minutes.
