Ingredients
Scale
For the Cake:
- 1 cup coconut sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup plain full-fat kefir or buttermilk
- 1/2 cup water
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose einkorn flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
For the Topping:
- 1 pint heavy whipping cream (16 fl oz)
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- Fresh blueberries, for garnish
Instructions
For the Cake:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease and flour one 9-by-13-inch rectangular baking pan, or two 8-inch or 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, stir together coconut sugar and butter until creamy. Mix in the eggs until just incorporated, then mix in the kefir and water.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the einkorn flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir the dry mixture into the prepared wet mixture just until combined. The mixture will be thick.
- Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to overmix and break the berries.
- Scoop the mixture into the prepared baking pans and bake for 30-40 minutes, until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Transfer to a cooling rack, and let cool slightly for 15 minutes before removing from the pans to cool completely on the rack.
For the Topping:
- Once the cakes have cooled completely, prepare the topping. Whisk together the heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
- Decorate the cake with the whipped cream topping, and garnish with fresh blueberries. Serve.
