Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1.75 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups wild blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for tossing blueberries)
- 0.25 cups powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease and flour a 10-cup Bundt pan to prevent sticking.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl using a handheld or stand mixer, cream together the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Reduce the mixer speed to low and alternately add the dry flour mixture and sour cream to the batter, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
In a small bowl, toss the wild blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour to coat. This helps prevent the berries from sinking to the bottom of the cake during baking.
Gently fold the coated blueberries into the batter using a spatula, being careful not to crush them.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. The top of the cake should be golden brown.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then carefully invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, dust the cooled cake with powdered sugar before serving for an elegant touch.
Slice and serve the Wild Blueberry Bundt Cake. Enjoy!
