Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside. Prepare a 10" tube or bundt pan by greasing, throughly, and dusting well with powder. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy, approximately 2-3 minutes. Add in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add in lemon juice and zest and beat well. Scrape down bowl to make sure all ingredients are well combined.
- With mixer on low speed, add in 1/2 of dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Add in half of buttermilk, and mix until just combined. Repeat.
- Toss blueberries in flour to coat, then gently fold into the cake batter. Scoop batter into prepared pan. Bake for approximately 65-75 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into cake comes out clean, and cake bounces back when lightly pressed.
- Allow to cool slightly, then use a spatula or knife to gently loosen the cake from the sides of the pan. Then allow cake to continue to cool for approximately 10 minutes. Once cooled, invert cake onto a cake plate or pan. Allow to cool completely.
- To make frosting, combine frosting ingredients in a bowl and mix until smooth. Drizzle over cake.
- Store tightly covered.
Notes
- Frosting can easily be made thicker, or thinner.
- For thicker frosting, add additional powdered sugar, a tablespoon at a time.
- For thinner frosting, add additional lemon juice 1-2 teaspoons at a time.
