Ingredients

For the cake

  • 2 sticks butter 1 cup
  • 1 ⅓ cups granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 egg yolks
  • Zest of two medium lemons or one large lemon (about 2-3 tablespoons loosely packed)
  • 4 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 ½ cups flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

For the glaze

  • 1 ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon milk

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F.
  • Flour a 10 inch bundt pan by greasing with butter. Add a few tablespoons of flour, and shake until coated. Turn the pan upside down and tap to remove excess flour.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to a mixing bowl. Stir and set aside.
  • Add room temperature butter, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla, lemon zest, and lemon juice to a large mixing bowl. Beat on high with an electric mixer for 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the dry ingredients in 2 batches. Mix on low until just it just comes together.
  • It will be a relatively thick batter, so use spatula to help transfer the batter into the prepared pan. Smooth the top of the batter.
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes. The top should start to brown and crack.
  • Let it cool for 10 minutes, then turn the pan over to remove the cake.
  • In a small bowl, add the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and milk. Mix until smooth. Drizzle over cake.
  • Let the cake cool and the glaze dry for about 30 minutes.

Notes

Decorate the cake just before serving so the blueberries don't slide off!
