Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

  5. Stir in the baking powder.
  6. Add the almond milk and mix until you have a thick, smooth batter.

  8. Lightly butter a piece of parchment paper and place it in a 9-by-9-inch baking dish.
  9. Pour the batter into the dish.
  10. Sprinkle the blueberries and chopped walnuts over the top.
  11. Bake for approximately 45–50 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned and the cake is set.
  12. Run a knife around the edges to loosen the cake from the pan, then carefully remove it.
  13. Allow it to cool before slicing, or enjoy it warm.
  14. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
