  • l ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp. baking powder
  • 2 vanilla beans, seeds scraped

For the blueberry glaze:

Method of Preparation

  1. Preheat your Wolf Convection Steam Oven to Convection Humid mode 325F. Grease a 9-inch cake pan.
  2. In a stand mixer, beat vegetable oil and sugar, then add eggs, one at a time, beating until smooth.
  3. Next, add Greek yogurt, vanilla bean seeds, and salt and beat until smooth.
  4. Add baking powder and flours in 1/2-cup increments, scraping the sides of the mixing bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. Beat on medium-low speed until well-combined.
  5. Pour into your greased cake pan and bake 30 minutes. While baking, make the blueberry glaze. Let cake cool completely before glazing.

Glaze

  1. Combine all ingredients for glaze in your Wolf blender and puree one minute.
  2. Using a fine mesh strainer, strain puree into medium-sized saucepan to remove any blueberry skins.
  3. Boil this mixture, then simmer until sugar and cornstarch has dissolved, and a rich, dark, royal purple color is achieved.
  4. When your cake is cooled, pour the glaze onto the center of the cake, letting it evenly coat the cake on top and sides.
  5. Let chill in the fridge for the glaze to set. Serve cool or at room temperature.
