Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour

- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 2 Eggs
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 1.5 cups Fresh blueberries
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan with butter or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter with a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth and fluffy.
Step 4
Add the vanilla extract and unsweetened applesauce to the butter, mixing until well incorporated.
Step 5
Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully mixed before adding the next.
Step 6
Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet batter, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
Step 7
Gently fold in the fresh blueberries and lemon zest using a spatula, taking care not to crush the berries.
Step 8
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 10
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 11
Serve plain or with a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream for an added treat.
