Blueberry Crumb Bundt Cake

Blueberry Crumb Bundt Cake

Ingredients:

For the Cake:

• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
• 3 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup sour cream (or plain Greek yogurt)
• 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

For the Crumb Topping:

• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan, making sure to cover all the nooks and crannies to prevent sticking.
2. Make the Crumb Topping:
   • In a small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Pour in the melted butter and mix with a fork until the mixture forms coarse crumbs. Set aside.
3. Prepare the Cake Batter:
   • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
   • In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
   • Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
   • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix just until combined; do not overmix.
   • Gently fold in the blueberries.
4. Assemble the Cake:
   • Spoon half of the batter into the prepared bundt pan and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle half of the crumb topping over the batter.
   • Add the remaining batter on top and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining crumb topping over the top of the cake.
5. Bake the Cake:
   • Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
   • If the top is browning too quickly, you can tent it with aluminum foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.
6. Cool and Serve:
   • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
   • Once cooled, transfer to a serving plate. You can dust the cake with powdered sugar if desired.
7. Enjoy:
   • Slice and serve this delicious blueberry crumb bundt cake with a cup of coffee or tea, or as a delightful dessert!

This cake is perfect for brunches, family gatherings, or as a special treat. The combination of the moist cake, juicy blueberries, and crunchy crumb topping makes it absolutely irresistible.
