Blueberry Lemon Bundt Cake
Ingredients
- 1 c. unsalted butter 2 sticks softened
- 1 3/4 c. sugar
- zest of 1 lemon

- 1/2 c. buttermilk
- 2 c. blueberries
For the Glaze:
- 2 c. powdered sugar

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a large bundt pan (about 10 inches) with baking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar till smooth. Add the lemon zest, vanilla, and eggs one at a time, mixing each just until incorporated. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice and buttermilk.
- Starting and ending with the flour mixture, add the flour mixture alternatively with the buttermilk mixture and blend after each addition just until incorporated. Do NOT over mix or the cake will be tough.
- Stir in the blueberries then pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and spread until smooth.
- Bake for 60 minutes. Sides should be golden brown and the cake should no longer jiggle and a toothpick should come out clean. Do NOT over bake. Allow to cool for 15 minutes before you invert it carefully on a serving plate.
- Prepare the glaze by whisking ingredients together in a medium bowl. Spoon glaze over cooled cake.

Hello! I’m super excited to try this cake and it’s in my oven right now. I just thought I should let you know you forgot to include the blueberries in the directions. They are in the ingredient list but not in the actual directions. I’m not much of a baker do I follow baking recipes exactly…I did look up another recipe and dusted them with flour and gently folded them. Hopefully it work! Just thought you might want to update your recipe. I can’t wait to try it as it smells wonderful! Thanks!
