Ingredients

  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 1 cup of sugar
  • 1 cup of sour cream(8 oz.)
  • 1/2 cup of light olive oil, vegetable oil or canola oil
  • 1 TSP vanilla extract
  • 1/4 TSP salt
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (scrape off top so it is a level cup)
  • 2 TSP baking powder
  • 1 medium lemon for juice and lemon zest
  • 1/2 TBSP corn starch
  • 12-16oz fresh or frozen blueberries(if you use frozen, thaw and drain then in step #4: mix with 1 TBSP cornstarch and omit the lemon juice) Powdered sugar to dust the top

Instructions:

Prep: 

Use pan spray or butter to line a 9 inch spring form pan. You can line bottom with parchment but pan spray on the whole thing works just fine.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. 

Step #1: Beat 2 eggs and 1 cup of sugar on high speed for 3-5 minutes, or until a light color and thick.

Step #2: Add 1 cup of sour cream, 1/2 cup oil, 1 TSP vanilla, 1/4 TSP salt and whisk on low until it is well mixed.

Step #3: Mix together 2 TSP baking powder and 2 cups of flour with a fork and then add it to your batter a little at a time and then add 1 1/2 TBSP of lemon juice and 1 TBSP of lemon zest

Step #4: Rinse off your blueberries and drain. Toss your blueberries with

1/2 TBSP corn starch until there is no longer cornstarch. If using fresh blueberries add 1 TSP of lemon juice.

Step #5: Pour half of the batter in the pan and put a layer of blueberries on top. Then use the rest of your batter and spread over top adding the remaining blueberries. Bake at 375 for about 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let it rest around 20 minutes and then remove the ring and cool until warm. Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm or room temp.
