This summery dessert was inspired by my friend Aku, who makes something similar whenever she has people over. I also keep it in heavy rotation at this time of year, not least because it’s so easy. The cornmeal in the batter brings coarseness and bite to an otherwise soft dessert, topped with jammy blueberries that snuggle into the sponge as it bakes. The only other thing you could wish for is a generous pour of cream, which I wholeheartedly encourage.
