An easy blueberry pound cake recipe for cake that bakes up moist, sweet, and bursting with fresh, juicy blueberries.

Moist Blueberry Pound Cake

(1/2 pound) butter, softened

eggs

vanilla extract

salt (I use Diamond Crystal kosher salt)

lemon,

baking powder

all-purpose flour

blueberries, fresh or fresh-frozen (no need to thaw)

Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease and line a standard tube pan, bundt pan, or large loaf pan (4.5&quot; x 12&quot;). PRO TIP: Do not overfill; no matter what type of cake pan you choose, the blueberry pound cake batter should not fill the pan higher than 3/4 full. Bake any extra batter as muffins or tea-sized loaf cakes.

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar until fluffy and light. Add the eggs, vanilla, salt, and lemon juice (if using). Beat until smooth and light. PRO TIP: Don&#39;t forget to scrape the sides of the bowl once or twice with a rubber spatula as you go! The batter should be fully emulsified.

Mix the baking powder and flour on low, just until combined. Fold in the blueberries and mix gently, just until evenly distributed.

Pour the batter into the prepared tube, loaf, or bundt pan. Spread the batter to even the top, and sprinkle the top generously with sugar, if desired.

Bake for approximately 1 hour 15 - 20 minutes, or until a cake tester, such as a toothpick, comes out clean and the top of the cake springs back lightly. Do not overbake.TIP: If you use frozen blueberries, your baking time will increase slightly.

Remove the cake from the oven and cool on a wire rack. When the cake pan is cool enough to handle and the cake is still warm, turn the cake out onto the cooling rack to cool fully before serving. Feel free to serve as-is, or whisk up a quick confectioner sugar glaze with fresh lemon juice, water, or milk.

These strawberry shortcakes are one of our favorite easy summer desserts!

Easy Summer Desserts: Strawberry Shortcake

cornmeal

cane sugar

sea salt

coconut oil

eggs (beaten)

almond milk (more

Coarse sugar (for sprinkling, optional)

strawberries (sliced)

whipped cream or coconut whipped cream

Mint leaves (optional)

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Using your hands, work the coconut oil in until the mixture resembles coarse sand. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, eggs, and milk and mix until just combined. The dough will be more moist and pliable than traditional biscuit dough.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured piece of parchment paper and pat into a ½-inch-thick rectangle. Fold the dough into thirds and pat or roll again until 1-inch thick. Freeze for 20 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Remove the dough from the freezer and use a 2½-inch round biscuit cutter to cut out 3 to 4 biscuits. Re-roll the scraps as necessary to cut out 8 1-inch thick biscuits. Place the biscuits on the baking sheet.

If desired, brush the tops of the biscuits with a little almond milk and sprinkle with coarse sugar.

Bake 16 to 18 minutes or until golden brown around the edges.

Assemble the strawberry shortcakes with the biscuits, strawberries, cream, and mint, if desired.

This Peach Galette recipe is perfect in every way, with a buttery, flaky crust and juicy cinnamon-dusted peaches. Serve with scoops of vanilla ice cream.

Peach Galette Recipe

Tbsp sugar

tsp fine sea salt

Tbsp unsalted butter (very cold)

Tbsp ice water (or add to desired consistency)

egg (beaten for egg wash)

Tbsp coarse sugar

peaches

Tbsp all-purpose flour

tsp cinnamon

tsp pure vanilla extract

unsalted butter

In a food processor with the blade attachment, pulse together the flour, sugar, and salt until combined.

Cut cold butter into small (1/2-inch) cubes and add it to the food processor. Push the pulse button 8-10 times. Your butter should become pea-sized. Add ice water 1 Tbsp at a time and pulse between each addition. Your dough should be ready when it just begins to clump.

Form the dough into a disk. Don’t overwork it, just pat it into a disk shape, dust with flour on all sides and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 3 days.

How to Make the Crust:

Preheat the oven to 425°F. On a floured sheet of parchment paper, roll the dough into a 12″ circle with a rolling pin. It doesn&#39;t have to be a perfect circle. Place the parchment paper and dough into a rimmed baking sheet and refrigerate while you make the peach filling.

In a small bowl, stir together granulated sugar, flour and cinnamon. Slice peaches into 1/2″ thick slices, place peaches in a medium bowl and sprinkle with flour mixture. Add vanilla and stir gently with a spatula until the flour is fully incorporated.

Arrange the peaches in a circular pattern over the dough working from the outside in and leaving a 2″ dough border. Discard any excess juices from the peaches, or your galette may overflow. Dot the top of the peaches with small chunks of 1/2 tbsp butter.

Fold the edges of the galette up and over the peaches, pinching the overlapping edges together to form a nice seal. Try to patch up any cracks in the dough. Brush the crust with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the peach juices are syrupy. It&#39;s ok if it juices start oozing from the bottom. Let sit 15 minutes before serving.
