How To Make greek yogurt blueberry lemon glazed bundt cake

  • Step 1
    Sift dry ingredients together in a bowl and set aside
  • Step 2
    Cream the butter in a mixer until light and fluffy. Mix in the sugars, beating until its once again light and fluffy
  • Step 3
    Slowly, one at a time, beat in the eggs then add the vanilla extract
  • Step 4
    Grate the entire lemon( should add up to 2-3 Tbsp) and mix into the batter
  • Step 5
    Squeeze out 1/4 Cup of lemon juice and mix thoroughly into the yogurt. This adds taste and also thins out the thick Greek Yogurt
  • Step 6
    Add 1/3 of flour mixture and mix in completely. Follow with the yogurt then alternate flour and yogurt ending with the rest of the flour.
  • Step 7
    Mix 1 Cup of blueberries with the 1 tsp of flour then fold in gently.
  • Step 8
    Grease and flour a bundt pan, then pour in the batter. Take the remaining 1/2 cup to cup of blueberries and add to the top, slightly pushing into the batter. That way the blueberries will be throughout the cake, not just on the bottom.
  • Step 9
    Bake in a 350 degree oven for 50-60 minutes until completely baked through. Let it cool and glaze it with the Lemon Icing Glaze (recipe below)
  • Step 10
    Prepare Lemon Glaze: Whisk all ingredients in a microwave safe bowl, add butter and microwave on high for 45 seconds . let cool whisk again to remove any lumps
