Ingredients
- 2 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 and 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 cup powdered sugar
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 and 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the sour cream. Begin and end with the flour mixture, mixing until just combined.
- In a separate bowl, toss the fresh blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour. This will help prevent the blueberries from sinking to the bottom of the cake.
- Gently fold the coated blueberries into the cake batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the lemon glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and powdered sugar until smooth.
- Once the cake is baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the cake has cooled, drizzle the lemon glaze over the top.
- Slice and serve the delicious Blueberry Sour Cream Bundt Cake!
