🫐 A Little History
Pound cake dates back to the 1700s, originally made with a pound each of butter, sugar, eggs, and flour. Over time, bakers added modern twists—like sour cream for tenderness and blueberries for freshness. This version keeps the classic soul of pound cake while adding bright flavor and a moist, bakery-style crumb.
🛒 Ingredients
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, room temperature
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs, room temperature
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup sour cream, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries
1 tablespoon flour (for coating blueberries)
🧑🍳 Instructions
Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour a bundt or loaf pan.
Toss blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour and set aside.
In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy (about 3–4 minutes).
Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Mix in vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
Add dry ingredients to the batter alternately with sour cream, beginning and ending with flour.
Gently fold in the blueberries.
Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 70–80 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Cool in pan for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
