Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking pan with parchment paper.
Mixing
  1. In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together the almond flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
  3. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
  4. Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to break them up too much.
Baking
  1. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly. Bake for about 30–35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  2. Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.

Notes

For a crunchy texture, sprinkle sliced almonds on top before baking. Enjoy warm with whipped cream or ice cream.
