How to Make Blueberry Upside Down Ginger Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, butter, and ginger. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved. Stir in the blueberries.
- Pour the blueberry mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
- In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the molasses and vanilla.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter over the blueberry mixture in the pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 85 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate. Serve warm or at room temperature.
