Recipe Directions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and lemon zest until well combined.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the vanilla extract, white vinegar, vegetable oil, and cold water. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold the fresh blueberries into the batter until evenly distributed.
- Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar if desired, slice, and serve.
