Preparation

Instructions

0/5
  1. Preheat the oven and prepare the filling

    Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). In a medium saucepan, add the blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch (if you want a thicker syrup consistency). Heat over medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes while stirring gently. Once the mixture starts to thicken and lightly simmer, remove from heat. Pour this filling into a 9 x 9 inch (23 x 23 cm) square baking dish lightly buttered or lined with parchment paper.

  2. Prepare the cake batter

    In a large bowl, cream the softened butter with the sugar until you get a pale and fluffy mixture. Add the egg and vanilla, then mix until smooth. In another bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, cake flour, and salt. Gradually incorporate them into the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Do not overmix: the batter should be smooth but not too worked, to keep it as moist as possible.

  3. Prepare the blueberry pudding

    Gently place the cake batter on top of the blueberry filling in the baking dish. Spread evenly using a spatula to cover all the fruits. It's okay if some blueberries rise to the surface during cooking - this will give a nice marbled effect.

  4. Baking

    Bake in the center of the oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is well browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The blueberry pudding should be well risen and slightly crispy on top, while remaining tender inside.

  5. Cooling and serving

    Let cool for about 10 minutes before serving. The blueberry pudding is delicious warm, but can also be eaten cold.
