Living in Maine, I am lucky to have an endless amount of wild blueberries. This recipe's similar to a pineapple upside down cake. It's easy, light and also great with cranberries. —Nettie Moore, Belfast, Maine

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup butter, cubed
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup 2% milk
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • Optional toppings: Vanilla ice cream, whipped cream and toasted almonds

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°. In a 10-in. cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet, melt cubed butter over medium-low heat; stir in brown sugar until dissolved. Remove from heat. Stir in orange juice; sprinkle with blueberries.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, whisk egg, milk, melted butter and extract until blended. Add to flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Pour over blueberries.
