Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup (180ml) of melted unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) canola oil
  • 1 cup (200 g) sugar
  • 1 ½ (7.5 ml) teaspoon pure almond extract
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) water
  • 1 ½ cups (180 g) flour
  • 2 teaspoon (10 ml) baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) salt
  • 6 oz (170 g) fresh blueberries
  • ¼ cup (50 g) raw sliced almonds
  • 1-2 tablespoon (13 g) of powdered sugar for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Begin by preheating the oven to 350°F (176°C) degrees.
  • Prepare a 10" deep dish tart pan with baking spray; you can also use a regular cake pan or make muffins.
  • In a spacious bowl, blend melted butter, canola oil, and sugar until well combined. Next, use a wire whisk to incorporate the eggs until fully mixed. Finally, add almond extract and water, stirring thoroughly.
  • Start by combining flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl. Then, introduce this mixture into the wet ingredients and gently stir it in. Finally, incorporate the blueberries with a gentle stir.
  • Gently pour the batter into the prepared pan, then generously sprinkle raw almonds on top. Bake for 25-30 minutes until it turns a beautiful golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Remove the cake from the tin, then set it on a cake stand before dusting it with powdered sugar.
