- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully invert onto a serving plate.
- Cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- Use fresh blueberries for best results, but frozen can work as well (no need to thaw).
- You can substitute other plant-based milks like soy or oat.
- Add lemon zest to the batter for extra flavor.
