Ingredients

2 cups fresh blueberries

1/2 cup brown sugar

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup buttermilk

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Zest of 1 lemon

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan with cooking spray or butter and set aside.

In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and brown sugar until well combined. Pour the mixture into the bottom of the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.

Sprinkle the fresh blueberries evenly over the brown sugar mixture in the pan. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, beat the granulated sugar and eggs together until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Mix in the buttermilk, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until just combined.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until fully incorporated and no flour pockets remain.

Gently pour the batter over the blueberries in the pan, ensuring it covers them evenly.

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully invert the cake onto a serving platter to reveal the blueberry topping.
