Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard bundt pan or a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Lightly dust with flour, then tap out the excess.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream 1 cup of unsalted butter and 2 cups of granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients in three stages, alternating with the 1 cup of whole milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
In a small bowl, toss 2 cups of blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour to coat them. This will help prevent them from sinking during baking.
Gently fold the floured blueberries into the batter using a rubber spatula, taking care not to squish the berries.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 65-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top begins to brown too quickly, loosely cover it with aluminum foil around the 45-minute mark.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then, carefully invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve the blueberry pound cake as is, or dust with powdered sugar for an extra touch. Enjoy with coffee, tea, or a dollop of whipped cream!
