Tips for making the best Blueberry Breakfast Cake
ere are a few tips that will make the best blueberry breakfast cake to fulfill your mornings.
- Always dust the blueberries in the flour. This will help make the blueberries float into the cake batter instead of sinking into the bottom of the cake.
- Once you have added the lemon juice to the batter, you need to add blueberries and bake the cake as soon as possible. The lemon is reactive with baking powder and buttermilk for making a fluffy cake; otherwise, your cake may sink and become dense.
I don’t think I have ever heard of a 6 inch baking pan. ??
Dawn, I googled it and found they are sold on Amazon, at Hobby Lobby, Walmart, Target and even King Soopers is listed.
