Classic Blueberry Sour Cream Pound Cake

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup sour cream, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries (if frozen, do not thaw)
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for coating berries)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt or tube pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. Mix in the sour cream and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  7. Toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour (this helps prevent them from sinking). Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
  8. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  9. Bake for 60–70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15–20 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with a simple glaze if desired.

Enjoy your deliciously moist and classic blueberry sour cream pound cake!
