Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, alternating with sour cream. Mix until just combined.
  6. Stir in lemon zest, vanilla extract, and gently fold in the blueberries.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  9. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack.
  10. Mix powdered sugar with lemon juice until smooth for the glaze, then drizzle over the cooled cake.

Notes

Use fresh blueberries for best flavor; frozen can be used but must be thawed and dried. The glaze is optional but adds a refreshing touch.
