For the Lemon Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Instructions:

For the Cake:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10-cup bundt pan and dust it with flour, tapping out any excess.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Mix in the lemon juice and lemon zest until well combined.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the sour cream. Begin and end with the dry ingredients.
  7. Gently fold in the floured blueberries.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, spreading it evenly.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
  10. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then, carefully invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

For the Lemon Glaze:

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest until you get a smooth glaze.
  2. Once the cake is completely cooled, drizzle the lemon glaze over the top of the bundt cake.

Optional: Garnish with additional fresh blueberries and lemon zest for an extra pop of color and flavor.
