Set aside to cool a bit, once cooled, add the egg yolks, and whisk to combine.
Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir with a wooden spoon until combined.
Fold in egg whites.
Once combined, fold in the blueberries.
Pour into a spring-form pan that has been sprayed with a baking spray.
