Ingredients
 
 

  • 225 g Baking Spread (Cold)
  • 225 g Caster Sugar
  • 275 g Self-Raising Flour
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 4 Eggs
  • 2 tbsp Milk
  • 2 tbsp Greek Plain Yoghurt (full fat)
  • 200 g Blueberries

Lemon Icing

  • 3-4 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 250 g Icing Sugar (Confectioners Sugar sifted)
  • Zest of 1 Lemon

Instructions
 

  • You will need a 2lb loaf tin. Preheat the oven to 160°c/ 180°c/Gas 4. Grease and line the tin.
  • Place all the ingredients in a bowl apart from the blueberries and use an electric whisk to blend everything together for 3 minutes. Toss the blueberries in flour. Make sure they are fully coated and then add them to the mixture. Turn the mixture into the prepared tin and level the top.
  • Bake in the oven for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until the cake shrinks from the sides. Leave to cool in the tin for 10 minutes then remove and cool on a wire rack.

Lemon Icing

  • In a bowl, mix together the lemon juice and icing sugar to give a runny consistency. Use a palette knife to spread out evenly. Sprinkle with lemon zest and leave to set before cutting into pieces.
