- Hey everyone, it's Natasha of natashaskitchen.com,
We're making an easy blueberry lemon cake
that's so soft and moist and loaded with blueberries.
Let's get right into it.
In a large mixing bowl, combine two large eggs
and one cup of sugar.
Beat those together on high speed for five minutes
or until the mixture is thick and lightened in color.
(upbeat music)
Add one cup of sour cream, half a cup of light olive oil,
a teaspoon of vanilla extract and a 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
Mix on low speed just until combined.
(mixing motor sound)
In a separate dish, whisk together two cups of flour
with two teaspoons of baking powder.
Then add that mixture to the batter a third at a time,
whisking to incorporate between each addition.

Finally stir in half a tablespoon of lemon zest
and one tablespoon of fresh lemon juice.

Rinse your blueberries and drain well,
then fold in half a tablespoon of cornstarch
and a teaspoon of lemon juice, stirring just until
it's well combined and no dry starch remains.
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees fahrenheit
then butter a nine inch springform pan
and line the bottom with parchment paper.
Spread half of the batter evenly into the pan
and top with half of your blueberries.

Repeat with the second half of the batter
then sprinkle the remaining blueberries over the top.

Use your spatula to push the blueberries
about half-way into the batter.
Bake at 375 degrees fahrenheit for about 55 minutes
or until a toothpick inserted into the center
comes out clean without any wet batter.
Let the cake cool in the pan for about 15 to 20 minutes
then remove it from the mold.
This is has been cooling for about 20 minutes
and all that's left to do is add some powdered sugar
and the taste test.
Here we go.
I like to be generous with this because
it's not an overly sweet cake
so it's just the perfect ending to this cake.
Yum.
Okay.
We're all about generous slices.
Oh, here we go.
Hoo hoo-hoo-hoo.
(laughs)
That's the part where I get excited.
Okay.
Yum.
Look at that.
Mm-mm.
Delicious, it is so soft and I love the little highlights
of lemon with the lemon juice and the lemon zest.
And then those sweet tangy bites of fresh blueberries, wow.
