Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups flour (plus 2 tbsp flour)
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup butter (melted)
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt
  • 2 tsp lemon zest
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups blueberries
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp milk


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350. Grease a cake pan or line with parchment paper. 
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt and beat until combined. Set aside for later.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter, brown sugar, honey, yogurt, lemon zest and vanilla for 4 minutes. Beat the eggs in the mixture, one at a time. Add the flour cornmeal mixture. Beat until combined, and then fold in the blueberries with a rubber spatula. 
  4. Pour the batter in the cake pan. Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Over baking this cake will make it super dry.
  5. While the cake is baking, make the powdered sugar icing. Whisk powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl. 
  6. Once the cake has finished cooking, drizzle the icing over the cake. 
  7. Enjoy with a hot cup of coffee after dinner or for a delicious bite at brunch with friends!
