Ingredients
For the cake:
- 1 package lemon cake mix (see note 1)
- 3 ounces instant lemon pudding mix (see note 2)
- 2/3 cup water
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest (see note 3)
- 1/3 cup lemon juice from 2-3 lemons
- 4 large eggs
- 6 ounces blueberries fresh or frozen (see note 4)
For the glaze:
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons water or lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously coat large Bundt pan with shortening or nonstick spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together cake mix and dry pudding. Add water, oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, and eggs and stir to combine. Carefully fold in blueberries.
- Pour into prepared pan and bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean with a few crumbs attached.
- Cool 15 minutes in pan. Invert on to a rack set over a baking sheet and cool completely.
- To make the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, water, and vanilla. Drizzle over cooled cake and let harden for at least 10 minutes.
Notes
- Boxed lemon cake mix: This gives you a head-start on the cake and is the secret to ultra-lemony flavor. Yes, even restaurants use boxed lemon cake mixes.
- Instant lemon pudding mix: Add the dry pudding mix to the batter dry (you don't prepare the pudding separately). Even if your cake mix says "pudding in the mix," you should still add a box of instant pudding.
- Lemon zest and juice: Zest the lemon before cutting it in half for juice.
- Blueberries: Both fresh and frozen blueberries work here, just be sure to use only 6 ounces (not more). You don't need to thaw frozen blueberries; just toss them in frozen.
- Yield: This Lemon Blueberry Cake makes 12 servings (or 9 if you like large slices).
- Storage: Store covered at room temperature for up to 4 days.
- Freezer: Wrap the unglazed cake in 2 layers of freezer-safe plastic wrap. Label, date, and freeze up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before glazing.
