Blueberries

Why does the fruit in cake go to the bottom?

To prevent fruits to sink to the bottom of the cake, coat fruits in flour before folding into the batter. Once added to the cake mixture the flour coating will thicken the batter immediately surrounding the fruit and help suspend the fruit. Fill up prepared pan and bake.

Baking

Preheat fan oven to 325ºF/160ºC. Bake for about 50 minutes. Insert a thin knife blade or a wooden skewer into the center of the cake, it should come out clean. Wait 30 mins before de-molding.
