Absolutely Incredible Blueberry Pound Cake

Quickbreads, Coffee Cakes Recipes | Cakes and Frostings Recipes

Yield: 16 servings

  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup light butter
  • 4 ounces low-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 large egg white
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour, divided
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 (8-ounce) carton lemon low-fat yogurt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • cooking spray
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 4 teaspoons lemon juice

Preheat oven to 350 degrees . Beat the first 3 ingredients with a mixer on medium speed until well blended (about 5 minutes). Add eggs and egg white, one at a time, beating well after each addition. In a separate small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons flour and blueberries and toss well. Mix remaining flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt separately and add to prepared batter alternately with yogurt, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Fold in blueberry mixture and vanilla. Pour cake batter into a 10-inch tube pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Cool cake in pan for 10 minutes; remove from pan. Combine powdered sugar and lemon juice in small bowl. Drizzle over warm cake. Cut with a serrated knife and serve.

This recipe is named correctly. It is absolutely incredible! I made it for a large group and everyone loved it. I will definitely make it many more times. – Anonymous Review

I made it today. My wife and I think it is one of the best cakes we have ever eaten! I put a little less sugar than it called for--we don't like our desserts too sweet. But, we liked it very much. – Reviewed by Frank SanGregory
