One of the best blueberry desserts I have had… I’m not a big blueberry gal, but this was amazing. & the best part? all in one bowl! No mixer just a whisk.

Prep Time:10 minutes

Cook Time:45 minutes

Total Time:55 minutes

Ingredients for cake:

1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1/2 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup yogurt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoon baking powder
1 1/2 cup blueberries
1 tablespoon flour for tossing the blueberries

Ingredients for the icing:

1 tablespoon blueberry jam (optional)
1 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions:

Step 1

How to start

Preheat the oven to 350F (176C)

Step 2

In a bowl, mix together the sugar and lemon zest (rub the sugar with the lemon zest to get all the flavor into the sugar). Add your eggs and mix until smooth.

Step 3

Add your oil, vanilla and yogurt and lemon juice mix until you have a smooth batter.

Step 4

Start adding your flour, salt and baking powder and mix until just combined.

Step 5

Now that you have a silky batter, toss your blueberries into a small bowl with the 1 tablespoon of flour (this will prevent them from sinking while baking).

Step 6

Fold your blueberries into your batter and scoop the batter onto your buttered pan.

Step 7

I like to sprinkle a bit of sugar on top but this is completely optional.

Step 8

Bake for about 50 minutes or until fully cooked through. Do the toothpick test and it should come out clean.

Step 9

For the icing: in a small bowl, mix together your blueberry jam, lemon juice and powered sugar until you have a thick (ish) icing.

Step 10

Once the cake is out of the oven and is cooled a bit, drizzle the icing on top. Slice and enjoy!
