Easy Blueberry Torte

Simple, Wholesome and Delicious!

Just in time for the Summer and blueberry season, sharing my family’s Blueberry Torte recipe, made gluten-free of course!

And let me say upfront as as torte is often made with nuts, that this is entirely nut-free!

This is such a simple recipe – it comes together in 10 minutes, then bakes to perfection!

And it turns out the yummiest blueberry torte (which is really just a type of cake!)

It’s moist, soft, bursting with juicy blueberries and the flavor is unreal!

The funny thing is that my mom used to make this a lot when I growing up and then she stopped for no particular reason (you know how that happens?), and I periodically would remember it and ask her to find the recipe, but I hadn’t made it in yearrrsss and I had never made it gluten-free…. until now!

And now, it’s going to be on repeat all Summer long!

So let’s make it!

There’s a cooking video on this page so you can see how easy it is to make this gluten-free Blueberry Torte.

And if you’re new to this website, there is a printable recipe with exact measurements and directions on the bottom of every recipe page.

 

It’s made with just 9 ingredients!

gluten-free all purpose flour (we use GF Jules, affiliate link)

gluten-free graham crackers (we used Schar Honeygrams, amazon affiliate link)

baking soda

Back to the Easy Gluten-free Blueberry Torte…

The first thing you do is make your graham cracker crumbs if you haven’t already.

The use of graham cracker crumbs along with flour, by the way, is what I think classifies this as a torte rather than a cake which uses more flour…

I just used Schar Honeygrams (amazon link) and pulse them in a food processor until they are super fine.

Next, in a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking soda and baking powder.

Stir in the blueberries and set aside.

 

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, then add in the sugar and cream together.

Add the eggs, one at a time.

Stir in the milk and we’re almost there!

Now just add the flour/ blueberry mix to the wet mixture all at once, and mix to combine.

The batter will be smooth.

Pour in the spring form pan and top with a few extra blueberries, and bake!

A springform pan, by the way, is a round baking pan that has a latch on the side, causing the bottom and sides of the pan to separate… this allows for easier removal of the torte from the pan, while creating a perfect round torte.

Pro tip: Check the torte at 30 minutes and cover loosely with foil if the top is golden, and continue baking until the center is done as well.

Let cool in the spring form pan, and when it’s cool enough, remove the pan and base, then let cool on a baking rack until ready to slice into it and serve.

Slice into it and enjoy!

You can see from the photo, the texture is unreal! It’s super moist and soft, and the cake is bursting with juicy blueberries!

A celebration of blueberries!
