👩🍳 Instructions
1. Preheat and Prepare the Pan
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease a small Bundt pan with butter or non-stick spray, making sure to get into every curve—this is key for that perfect release!
2. Mix Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy—about 3 minutes. This step gives your Bundt cake that tender crumb we all love.
4. Add Eggs and Flavorings
Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Add lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. The fresh lemon zest brings an irresistible fragrance!
5. Combine Wet and Dry
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the sour cream. Mix until just combined—don’t overmix.
6. Fold in Blueberries
Gently fold in the flour-coated blueberries. This little trick keeps them from sinking to the bottom.
7. Bake
Pour the batter evenly into your prepared Bundt pan. Smooth the top and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
8. Cool and Glaze
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully invert onto a wire rack. Once completely cool, whisk together powdered sugar and lemon juice to make a simple glaze. Drizzle generously over the top.
