Ingredients
2 3/4 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
4 large eggs
3 tablespoons lemon juice (from about 2 large lemons)
2 tablespoons lemon zest (from about 2 large lemons)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup sour cream (substitute with 1 cup yogurt plus 1 teaspoon baking soda if needed)
3 cups blueberries mixed with 2 tablespoons flour (if using frozen blueberries, do not mix with flour)
1 1/2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup lemon juice
A pinch of salt
1 tablespoon lemon zest
Instructions
1-Gathering and Prepping: First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease and flour a bundt pan with a 10-12 cup capacity. This step is key to getting that beautiful shape without any sticking drama. In a bowl, mix together the 2 3/4 cups flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt; set it aside for later.
2-Mixing the Batter: Beat 1 cup butter and 2 cups sugar on medium-high speed for about 3 minutes until itβs nice and creamy. Add 4 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each to keep things smooth. Gradually add the dry ingredients to this butter mixture in intervals to avoid lumps.
3-Mixing the Batter continued: Gently fold in 1 cup sour cream, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 tablespoons lemon zest, and 1 teaspoon vanilla using a spatula. If the batter needs a bit more zing, go ahead and add extra zest. Carefully fold in the 3 cups blueberries coat them with 2 tablespoons flour if theyβre fresh to keep them from sinking in the batter.
4-Baking and Finishing: Pour the batter into your prepared bundt pan and bake for about 60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. If it needs more time, add 10-15 minutes, and cover with foil if the top gets too brown. Let the cake cool slightly before turning it out onto a wire rack.
5-Baking and Finishing continued: For the icing, beat together 2 cups powdered sugar, 1/3 cup lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest. Slowly add 1 1/2 tablespoons melted butter, beating until smooth, then let it thicken before drizzling over the cooled cake. This step adds that final sweet-tart touch to your blueberry bundt cake with citrus.
