Blueberry Pound Cake Recipe

This Blueberry Pound Cake is made with fresh, juicy berries and baked in a Bundt pan. Enjoy a sweet slice for breakfast, with afternoon tea, or with ice cream for dessert.

  • Total Time: 90 minutes
  • Yield: 14 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 ¼ cups white sugar, divided
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease a 10-inch fluted tube pan (such as Bundt) with 2 tablespoons softened butter. Sprinkle ¼ cup sugar into the pan and tilt gently to coat.
  2. Prepare Dry Ingredients: Mix 2 ¾ cups flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Toss blueberries and remaining ¼ cup flour together in another bowl until coated.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream the remaining 2 cups sugar and 1 cup butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
  4. Combine and Fold: Gradually beat in the flour mixture, then fold in the floured blueberries. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
  5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 70 to 80 minutes. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.

Notes

  • Coating Blueberries: Coating the blueberries with flour helps to keep them from sinking to the bottom of the cake.
  • Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing for a smoother batter.
  • Storing: Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
