Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use frozen blueberries instead of fresh blueberries?

• Yes! You can use frozen blueberries, but don’t thaw them first. Fold them into the batter while still frozen to help prevent them from releasing too much juice and turning the batter purple.

Can I use sour cream instead of Greek yogurt?

• Yes. Full-fat sour cream can be substituted for the Greek yogurt and will still give the cake a rich, moist and tender texture.

How do I know when my Lemon Blueberry Bundt Cake is done?

• Insert a toothpick or wooden skewer into the thickest part of the cake. It should come out clean or with just a few moist crumbs attached.

Can I make this cake ahead of time?

• Yes. You can bake the cake a day ahead, allow it to cool completely and store it tightly covered at room temperature. Add the glaze before serving for the prettiest presentation.

How should I store leftover Lemon Blueberry Bundt Cake?

• Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Let refrigerated slices come closer to room temperature before serving for the best texture.
