Ingredients

  • teaspoon double-acting baking powder 
  • 0.3 teaspoon baking soda 
  • cups blueberries fresh
  • tablespoons butter softened
  • large eggs 
  • large egg whites 
  • 6.8 ounces flour all-purpose
  • 0.8 cup granulated sugar 
  • 1.3 cups buttermilk low-fat
  • 0.3 teaspoon salt 
  • tablespoon sugar 
  • teaspoon vanilla extract 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • frying pan
  • oven
  • knife
  • whisk
  • wire rack
  • blender
  • baking pan
  • measuring cup

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 35
  2. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife.
  3. Combine flour, baking powder, soda, and salt, stirring with a whisk.
  4. Place granulated sugar and butter in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until well blended (about 2 minutes).
  5. Add vanilla, egg, and egg white; beat well.
  6. Add flour mixture and buttermilk alternately to sugar mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture; mix after each addition.
  7. Spoon half of the batter into a 9-inch round baking pan coated with cooking spray.
  8. Sprinkle evenly with 1 cup blueberries. Spoon remaining batter over the blueberries; sprinkle evenly with remaining 1 cup blueberries.
  9. Sprinkle the top evenly with 1 tablespoon turbinado sugar.
  10. Bake at 350 for 50 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes on a wire rack; remove from pan. Cool completely on wire rack.
  11. Note: If using peak-season fruit, use 1 1/2 cups blueberries instead of 2 cups, and only 1 cup buttermilk instead of 1 1/3 cups. This will make the batter thicker so the berries won't sink to the bottom.
