  1. Ingredients:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 4 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Lemon Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch cake pan.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
  4. Alternately add flour mixture and buttermilk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Fold in the blueberries.
