    Ingredients:

    • - 2 teaspoons baking powder
    • - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    • - 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • - 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • - 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
    • - 3 large eggs
    • - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • - 1 cup buttermilk
    • - 2 cups fresh blueberries
    • - Zest of 1 lemon

    For the Lemon Glaze:

    • - 1 cup powdered sugar
    • - 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    • - 1 tablespoon milk

    Instructions:

    1. Preheat the Oven:

       - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a Bundt pan, ensuring all the nooks and crannies are well coated.

    2. Prepare the Batter:

       - In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

       - In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and lemon zest.

    3. Combine Ingredients:

       - Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.

       - Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to overmix so the berries don’t burst.

    4. Bake:

       - Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan, spreading it evenly. Tap the pan on the counter to remove any air bubbles.

       - Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

       - Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.

    5. Prepare the Lemon Glaze:

       - In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and milk until smooth and pourable. Adjust the consistency with more lemon juice or milk if needed.

    6. Glaze and Serve:

       - Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the lemon glaze over the top, allowing it to drip down the sides.

       - Slice and serve, enjoying the combination of tender cake, juicy blueberries, and tangy lemon glaze.

    Enjoy your Blueberry Bundt Cake, a beautifully baked delight that’s perfect for any occasion. With its moist crumb, fresh berries, and zesty glaze, this cake is sure to be a hit wherever you serve it.
