Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it's hot enough for baking.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.

Mixing

  1. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  2. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Adding Flavor

  1. 5

    Fold in Blueberries and Lemon Zest

    Gently fold in the blueberries and lemon zest into the batter, being careful not to crush the berries.

Baking

  1. 6

    Prepare the Baking Pan

    Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.

  2. 7

    Pour and Bake

    Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cooling and Serving

  1. 8

    Cool the Cake

    Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

  2. 9

    Serve

    Slice the Blue Moon cake and serve it fresh. Enjoy as is or with a dusting of powdered sugar.
