Blueberry Plain Cake Recipe| Eggless Cake Recipes

Have you heard of Dorie Greenspan? I m not sure about her recipes but i love the way she presents them. No wonder she wrote for Julia Child. I mean, Julia! I dont know when i got on first name basis with her, but hey! she s my trustworthy friend when it comes to baking a french apple pie or some croissants or this crumbly, soft and slightly sticky cake with pints of blueberries in them.

I live in India. So i dont find fresh blueberries. I do get frozen ones and i found some the other day while meandering in the supermarket aisles. It was reasonably prized. So i picked one, came home, scoured for recipes and made this cake. There. I said it. I said it all. I made some slight variations to the original recipe but it was such a sell out, you wont believe it if i say it was gone in less than an hour of baking. Hot and all. Sigh!
