I made this today and it was SO easy! Thanks for a great dessert!
Could you use gluten free flour and it still work?

Hi Trina, I haven’t made this cake with gluten-free flour sorry!!
I’ve just made this and my batter is really hard, there was no “pouring” into the tin, more like scraping and squishing it into the tin. Could that be because I used frozen berries and they made the butter harden? I’ve just put it in the oven so fingers crossed it works 😊

Absolutely! You’re 100% correct! It will be fine!
Thaw the blueberries! I repeat, thaw the blueberries! This is not a drill! I broke a wooden spoon trying to scoop the batter out, the usual spatula just would not shift it 😢
