Ingredients
Scale
Cake:
- 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour (plus 1 tablespoon for coating berries)
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 ½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan thoroughly.
- Cream butter and sugar: In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3–4 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Prepare dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour mixture.
- Add blueberries: Toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour to prevent sinking, then gently fold them into the batter.
- Bake: Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and serve: Cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw before adding.
- This cake is delicious served plain, with powdered sugar dusted on top, or drizzled with a simple lemon glaze.
