Prep : 10 Total : 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 0.5 cup whole milk room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 0.5 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk room temperature, for glaze

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F and spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
  • In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and kosher salt.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Add eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and canola oil; mix on low speed for about 1 minute until combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and blend on medium speed for 30 seconds or until combined.
  • Remove the bowl from the mixer and gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until browned and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cover the top of the cake with aluminum foil during the last 10 minutes if it starts to brown too quickly.
  • Set the cake aside to cool slightly while preparing the glaze.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar and 2 tablespoons whole milk until light and smooth. Add more milk if necessary to reach desired consistency.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the warm cake. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

This cake tastes best fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Enjoy it with a cup of coffee or tea in the morning!
