Ingredients:
- For the cake:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup milk
- 1 cup fresh blueberries, washed and dried
- For the glaze:
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions:
Warm the oven up to 175°F (350°F). Either grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan or put parchment paper inside it.
Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a medium-sized bowl using a whisk. Put away.
In a big bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until they are fluffy and light.
One at a time, add the eggs and mix well after each one.
Mix the vanilla extract and maple syrup into the butter mixture until they are well mixed.
Three times, add the dry ingredients to the wet ones, switching between adding the dry ingredients and the milk each time. Put the dry ingredients in first and end with them.
Use a spoon to carefully fold in the blueberries.
The batter should be poured into the cake pan that has been prepared. Use the spatula to smooth the top.
In a hot oven, bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick stuck in the middle comes out clean.
Get the glaze ready while the cake is baking. Put the butter and maple syrup in a small pot and mix them together. Stir the food every once in a while over low heat until the butter melts.
Take the cake out of the oven and let it cool for ten minutes in the pan.
Flip the cake over onto a plate for serving, and then pour the warm maple glaze on top.
Before you serve the cake, let it cool all the way down. With a coffee or tea, enjoy your blueberry maple tea cake!
