5 Ingredient Blueberry Dump Cake
Serving size: 8
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter (1 stick, or you can use margarine)
1 cup flour (all purpose or whole wheat pastry flour)
1 cup sugar
1 cup milk (skim, almond milk or other dairy free milk in place of regular milk)
1 pint blueberries
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 375, spray a skillet with cooking spray or grease it with butter and set aside.
In a bowl melt the butter (30 seconds in the microwave does the trick) then pour in the flour, sugar and milk and whisk to combine, until no big clumps remain. Pour into the prepared skillet.
Sprinkle the blueberries evenly around the top of the batter.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until edges start to turn slightly brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes.
