- Mix until smooth.
- Divide the batter evenly between the two pie pans.
- Place the pie pans on the grill and cover with a lid or foil.
- Cook until the cake is set and golden, about 20-30 minutes.

Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider adding a splash of vanilla extract or a handful of fresh blueberries to the batter. If you don’t have shortening, you can substitute with melted butter or vegetable oil. Make sure your grill is preheated evenly to avoid uneven cooking. Keep an eye on the cake as grill temperatures can vary.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the blueberry cake warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful treat. It pairs beautifully with Aunt Louine'S All-Bran Muffins for a breakfast spread. Fresh berries on the side would also enhance the presentation and flavor.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If you want to keep it longer, refrigerate it for up to a week. To reheat, simply place a slice in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds or warm it on the grill for a few minutes until heated through.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different flavor of muffin mix?
Yes, you can absolutely experiment with other flavors like banana or chocolate muffin mix. Just adjust the cooking time slightly if needed, as different mixes may have varying moisture levels.
Can I make this recipe in the oven instead of on the grill?
Definitely! Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the cake for about 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Using the oven can provide a more consistent temperature.
What can I add to the batter for extra flavor?
Consider adding a teaspoon of cinnamon or nutmeg for a warm spice flavor. You can also mix in nuts or chocolate chips to enhance the texture and taste of the cake.
