Ingredients for Best Lemon Blueberry Bundt Cake

How to Make Best Lemon Blueberry Bundt Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together lemon zest, lemon juice, and buttermilk.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in blueberries.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 60-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze: Whisk together powdered sugar, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Add more lemon juice if needed to reach desired consistency.
  10. Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
