Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 1 cup milk
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup fresh blueberries
• 1 cup shredded carrots
• 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar, for dusting

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan. You can also line it with parchment paper for easier removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Mix until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Fold in the fresh blueberries, shredded carrots, and chopped walnuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and gently smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Once the cake is fully cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar for a sweet finish.

Step 10

Slice and serve your Muffin Glory Cake with a cup of coffee or tea. Enjoy!
