Preparation time 20 minutes
Cooking time 40 minutes
You Will Need
2 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 large egg white
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
2 1/2 cups self-rising flour
1 1/4 cups reduced-fat (2%) milk
What to Do
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Toss 2 cups blueberries, brown sugar, and cinnamon in small bowl until berries are coated.
2. Cream margarine and granulated sugar in large bowl with electric mixer at high speed until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add egg and egg white and beat 2 minutes. Beat in lemon zest. Reduce speed to low. Add flour alternately with milk, one-third at a time, stopping mixer occasionally to scrape bowl with rubber spatula. Do not overbeat.
3. Spread half of batter into pan and sprinkle with blueberry mixture. Spoon remaining batter on top, spreading evenly. Swirl through batter several times with knife, then top with remaining blueberries.
4. Bake until toothpick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs clinging, 40–45 minutes. Cool in pan on wire rack 15 minutes. Cut into 16 equal pieces. Serve warm or at room temperature.
