Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (315g)
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter (170g), softened
  • 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar (350g)
  • 4 large eggs room temperature
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (120g) (or sour cream)
  • 1/2 cup milk (120ml) (whole or 2%)
  • 2 lemons zest
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (60ml)
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries (225g), tossed in 1 tbsp flour
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (120g) (for glaze)
  • 2-3 tbsp fresh lemon juice (30-45ml) (for glaze)

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Thoroughly grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan. Toss the blueberries in 1 tablespoon of flour and set them aside.
  2. Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl.
  3. Beat the softened butter and granulated sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed for 4 to 5 minutes until the mixture is light, fluffy, and pale.
  4. Incorporate the eggs one at a time, beating well and scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition.
  5. Mix in the lemon zest and Greek yogurt until just combined.
  6. Lower the mixer speed to low. Add the dry ingredients in three parts, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
  7. Use a spatula to gently fold in the floured blueberries, taking care not to crush them.
  8. Transfer the batter to the prepared bundt pan, spreading it evenly and smoothing the top.
  9. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, checking for doneness at 50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  10. Cool the cake in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. Combine the powdered sugar and lemon juice into a pourable glaze and drizzle it generously over the cooled cake.

Greek Yogurt Substitute: If you find your fridge empty of Greek yogurt, I have used full-fat sour cream many times with fantastic results.
