This is literally the easiest dessert ever and it tastes so gourmet. A gluten free, paleo vanilla cake spotted with tons of fresh blueberries throughout. Top this with whipped coconut cream for the ultimate treat! I got the inspiration for this cake from the traditional blueberry upside down cake my mom would always make. The addition of the fresh blueberries creates an explosion of flavor and takes the vanilla cake from being a traditional, plain (but yummy!) dessert to an extraordinary seasonal treat.

Happy baking!
