Blueberry Skyr Cake

Fruit Dessert

This delicious dessert is made with fresh blueberries and vanilla skyr. 💜

Steaming the cake instead of baking it in the oven helps keep your home cool : steam heats the surrounding air less, which prevents the kitchen from overheating on hot days. It’s a light, fruity dessert, best enjoyed chilled during the summer season ! I was inspired by a recipe I discovered on the Bake Only Youtube Chanel.

Rinse the blueberries and pat them dry with a towel.

Step 1 : The batter

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup vanilla Skyr, 2 eggs, and 2 tbsp granulated sugar. Add 3 tbsp cornstarch and mix until the batter is smooth.
2. Gently fold in the blueberries, reserving a few for the topping.

Step 2 : Cooking

1. Crumple a sheet of parchment paper and place it at the bottom of a cake pan about 6 inches (16 cm) in diameter.
   Pour the batter into the pan and scatter the remaining blueberries on top.
2. Pour some water into a pressure cooker, place the steamer basket inside, then set the cake tin in the basket. Cover the tin with a small lid to protect it from water droplets.Steam for 35 minutes, starting once the pressure cooker begins to whistle.

Step 3 : Chilling

Once the cake has cooled, cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Carefully unmold before serving.

Bon appétit ! 💜
