Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, blend the softened butter, milk, eggs, lemon zest, and lemon juice until well combined.
  4. Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture, stirring gently until just combined—be sure not to overmix!
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries, taking care not to mash them.
  6. Grease a sheet cake pan or line it with parchment paper, then pour the batter evenly into the pan.
Baking
  1. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cooling and Serving
  1. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
  2. Slice and enjoy!
