Ingredients

  • BLUEBERRY CAKE
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup full-fat sour cream
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • LEMON GLAZE
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice

How To Make blueberry cake

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 10-inch Bundt cake pan with non-stick baking spray.
  • Step 2
    Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Step 3
    Using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment or a handheld mixer, on medium speed, cream the butter and sugar. Reduce the speed to low and add the eggs one at a time, mixing for a few seconds after each one or until the yolk breaks and blend a little.
  • Step 4
    Add the vanilla extract and half the sour cream. Mix until incorporated on low, scraping down the bowl and beater when needed.
  • Step 5
    Add the flour mixture in two increments, alternating with the remaining sour cream, scraping down the bowl and beater if needed, and mixing just until combined.
  • Step 6
    Remove the bowl from the stand and fold in the blueberries. Spoon the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Use a rubber spatula to even the batter in the pan.
  • Step 7
    Bake for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool for 30 minutes on a wire cooling rack before inverting it onto a serving platter. Cool the cake thoroughly.
  • Step 8
    Mix the powdered sugar and lemon juice, starting with 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice. Add another teaspoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency. Drizzle the glaze over the cake.
