Easy Sour Cream Blueberry Cake

This moist and tender blueberry cake is perfect for anyone living on their own who still wants a homemade dessert.  Blueberries are rich in antioxidants, and this easy recipe lets you enjoy a delicious coffee-shop–style treat right at home.

Ingredients:

1 cup self-rising flour

1 cup frozen blueberries

2 large eggs

½ cup vegetable oil

½ cup sour cream

1 cup sugar

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon cinnamon powder

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (for coating the blueberries)

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Preparing the cake pan:

 Lightly spray it with oil and dust with flour to prevent sticking.

Coating the blueberries:

Toss the frozen blueberries with the 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour.  This helps keep them from sinking in the batter.

Mixing the dry ingredients:

In a large bowl, combine the self-rising flour and cinnamon powder.

Blending the wet ingredients:

In a blender (such as a Vitamix) or mixing bowl, combine the eggs, vegetable oil, sour cream, sugar, and vanilla.  Blend or whisk until smooth.

Combining:

 Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients.  Gently fold in the coated blueberries.

Baking:

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cooling:

Let the cake cool before slicing and serving.

Tips:

If using fresh blueberries, skip thawing and coat them the same way.

For extra flavor, dust the top with powdered sugar or add a light lemon glaze.

Enjoy your soft, comforting blueberry cake!
