Ingredients

Scale

For the Cake

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour – Provides structure to the cake.
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder – Helps the cake rise beautifully.
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda – Balances acidity from the sour cream.
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt – Enhances flavor.
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened – For a rich, creamy texture.
  • 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar – Adds sweetness.
  • 4 large eggs – Provides structure and moisture.
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract – Enhances the cake’s flavor.
  • 1 cup sour cream – Makes the cake incredibly moist.
  • 1/2 cup milk – Helps create a smooth batter.
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries – Adds bursts of flavor and color.
  • 1/4 cup blueberry jam (optional) – Intensifies the blueberry swirl.

For the Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar – The base of the glaze.
  • 2–3 tablespoons blueberry puree – Adds natural color and fruity sweetness.
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract – Complements the blueberry flavor.

Pro tip: You can substitute almond milk for dairy milk or gluten-free flour if needed.

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare Your Equipment

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Thoroughly grease and flour your bundt pan to ensure easy removal.

Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3: Cream Butter and Sugar

  • In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy—about 3-5 minutes.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

  • Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, alternating with sour cream and milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients to maintain a smooth texture.

Step 5: Add Blueberries

  • Gently fold in the blueberries to avoid overmixing.

Step 6: Create the Swirl

  • If using blueberry jam, spoon it over the batter in dollops, then use a knife to create a gentle swirl pattern.

Step 7: Bake

  • Pour the batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 45-50 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.

Step 8: Cool and Glaze

  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
  • For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, blueberry puree, and vanilla extract, then drizzle over the cooled cake.

Equipment

Notes

  • Use fresh ingredients: Opt for ripe, sweet blueberries to maximize flavor.
  • Room temperature ingredients: Ensure the butter, eggs, and sour cream are at room temperature for a smoother batter.
  • Prevent sinking blueberries: Toss blueberries in a bit of flour before folding them into the batter to keep them evenly distributed.
