Ingredients
Scale
For the Cake:
2 cups sugar
1 cup butter
2 eggs
1 cup sour cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 5/8 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
For the Brown Sugar Topping:
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat Oven & Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch Bundt pan.
Make the Batter: In a large bowl, beat together the sugar, butter, eggs, sour cream, and vanilla extract until smooth. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, beating until just combined.
Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
Layer the Cake: Pour half of the batter into the prepared Bundt pan. Sprinkle half of the brown sugar mixture on top. Add the remaining batter and top with the remaining sugar mixture.
Bake the Cake: Bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Finish and Serve: Once cooled, dust the cake with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them; add them directly to the batter to prevent them from turning the batter purple.
For added flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg to the brown sugar topping.
Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
