Ingredients
- ¼ cup Lemon (Zest)
- 4 cups + ½ cup All-Purpose Flour
- 8 Eggs
- 3 cups Yogurt (Greek)
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 4 cups Mixed Berries
- 2 cups Sugar
- ½ cup Lemon (Juice)
- 1 ½ tablespoons Vanilla Extract
- 1 ½ cups Neutral Oil
- 1 ½ tablespoons Baking Powder
- 2 teaspoons Baking Soda
Directions
- Mise en place: Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare an 8-inch square baking pan by greasing it and optionally lining the bottom with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine 4 cups all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk them together.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, 72 Eggs, 3 cups + ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt, 1 ½ cups neutral oil, ¼ cup + 3 ½ tablespoons fresh lemon juice, ¼ cup + ½ tablespoon lemon zest, and 1 ½ tablespoons vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
- Gently incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- In a separate small bowl, toss the 4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries with ¼ cup + ½ tablespoon all-purpose flour. Fold most of the floured blueberries into the batter. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan and arrange the remaining blueberries on top.
- Bake for 28 to 34 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the bake to cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before cutting into 9 squares and serving.
