Fresh blueberries and zesty lemon create the perfect flavor combination in this Blueberry Lemon Bundt Cake, an easy dessert to celebrate the flavors of spring.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Spray a standard bundt cake pan with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer or a large mixing bowl with a hand mixer, beat the cake mix and butter until a thick batter forms. Add the yogurt, lemon juice, and milk, mixing until combined. Add the eggs and beat for 1 minute on medium speed.
Using a wooden spoon or a rubber spatula, fold in the lemon zest and blueberries. Pour the cake batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 40-50 minutes or until golden brown on top and set in the center.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool for 20 minutes before inverting it onto a platter.
Meanwhile, in a medium-sized mixing bowl, beat the frosting mix, butter, water, and vanilla extract with a hand mixer until smooth. Spread over the warm (but not hot) cake. Garnish with extra blueberries, lemon slices, or mint.
Notes
It's definitely best to use lemon-flavored yogurt in this recipe. It really helps turn the white cake into a lemon cake!
