I know that fall is on it’s way… but before we dive into all things pumpkin and apple I wanted to share a recipe with a delicious flavor combo that’s perfect to enjoy any time of year!
My inspiration for this recipe started with Organic Frozen Blueberries from Sprouts Farmer’s Market.
I have a very popular recipe on my site for Lemon Blueberry Bread that I’ve only made with fresh blueberries in the past. I wanted to see if I could use frozen blueberries in a similar recipe with equally delicious results.
I’m so happy I gave Sprouts Organic Frozen Blueberries a try, because the result were PERFECT!
The recipe performed perfectly with the frozen blueberries, and I’m so happy to know that I can make this recipe any time of year, even when I don’t have fresh berries on hand.
So feel free to choose fresh blueberries from Sprouts when they are available, but you can simply keep a bag of Sprouts Organic Frozen Blueberries on hand and enjoy this recipe whenever the baking mood strikes you! =)
I love knowing I can rely on the quality of Sprouts store brand products to produce beautiful and delicious results in all of my baking projects!

How to Make Lemon Blueberry Bundt Cake
Lemon Blueberry Bundt Cake
Ingredients
Cake
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup unsalted butter 12 tablespoons, melted
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest fresh grated
- 2 tablespoon lemon juice fresh
- ½ cup milk whole or lowfat, but avoid fat-free
- ½ cup sour cream full fat preferred
- 10 oz Sprouts Organic Frozen Blueberries 1 package (2 cups)
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Glaze
- 4 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 tablespoon lemon juice fresh
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F and generously grease and flour a 10” bundt pan.
- In a medium sized bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder and salt, and set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, blend together the melted butter, sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, blending for 10-15 seconds between each addition.
- Add vanilla, lemon zest and lemon juice. Mix until well combined.
- While slowly mixing, add about half of the flour mixture, and then add the sour cream.
- Continue blending and add the remaining flour mixture, and then the milk. Stop the mixer.
- In a small bowl, add the frozen blueberries and toss with 1 rounded tablespoon of flour. Stir until the berries are all evenly coated (this will help prevent the berries from all sinking to the bottom of the cake).
- Add the flour coated berries to the batter, and gently but quickly stir by hand with a spatula until just combined.
- Pour/scoop the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 65-80 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 1 hour before attempting to remove. To remove cake from pan, use a small spatula to gently loosen around the edges, then invert pan onto cake plate, or baking sheet.
- Prepare the glaze by simply whisking together the melted butter, powdered sugar and lemon juice in a bowl. Allow the glaze to sit for 10 minutes or so to thicken a bit, and then pour glazed over the cake.
- Slice and enjoy!

I work in a grocery store bakery and in the summer we make a lemon blueberry pudding cake that I love but I was wanting it at home during the off season so I looked online and found your recipe. I absolutely love it! It’s even better than the 1 we make at work! Unfortunately my bundt pan is a bit too small so I started making this recipe as cupcakes. Better for portion control and easier to share with friends at work. This has become 1 of my go to recipes. I can’t wait to try more recipes.
Thanks so much for the lovely note! So happy you’re enjoying the recipe!
I want to make this for my sons birthday, but he wants a sheet cake that can be decorated. Any thoughts on how to bake in a circular or rectangular pan? Also, he wants frosting (lol) so would you try maybe a lemon buttercream? Or what would you suggest? Love your blog… everything I’ve ever made has been divine!
Can fresh blueberries be used?
Yes, for sure. Fresh or frozen would both work perfectly. If using fresh then rinse the berries with water before tossing in the tablespoon of flour, so the flour lightly coats the berries.
Happy baking!
Looks amazing. If I am using frozen blueberries can I freeze this cake this cake with or without the glaze. Does the cake really need the glaze. Looking forward to your response.
I have not experimented with freezing the finished cake. In general, I always prefer to serve my baked goods fresh. If you are going to experiment with freezing the cake, I would wait to add the glaze. Yes, I do recommend adding the glaze before enjoying (or I wouldn’t have included it in the recipe).
Happy baking!
Such a gorgeous bundt cake! I love blueberry and lemon together ♥
