Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 315 g all-purpose flour; 3 teaspoons baking powder; 90 g caster sugar; ground fresh nutmeg, to taste; 2 eggs; 250 ml buttermilk; 60 g butter, melted; 1 teaspoon lemon zest, grated; 150 g fresh blueberries; 2 tablespoons demerara sugar

Servings: persons

315 g all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
90 g caster sugar
ground fresh nutmeg, to taste
2 eggs
250 ml buttermilk
60 g butter, melted
1 teaspoon lemon zest, grated
150 g fresh blueberries
2 tablespoons demerara sugar

1
Preheat oven to 200C (400F), and flour a 30 by 20cm cake tin with sides at least 5cm deep.
2
Sift the flour and baking powder into a large bowl, and add the sugar and a few good grinds of nutmeg.
3
in another bowl, whisk the eggs until light and fluffy, then add the buttermilk, butter and lemon zest and beat together well.
4
Pour into dry ingredients and mix gently with a wooden spoon until just combined (over-beating will toughen the cake).
5
Spoon mixture into the tin, spreading it out evenly. Scatter the blueberries over the mixture, then sprinkle these with the demerara sugar.
6
Bake in the oven for about 25 minutes, or until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.
7
Leave to cool in the tin, then cut into squares.
8
This keeps well in a biscuit tin for up to a week.
