Why Make Blueberry Bundt Cake with preserves?


A lot of blueberry bundt cake recipes are made with fresh blueberries, but I made mine with Bonne Maman Wild Blueberry Preserves. Bonne Maman preserves taste just like your grandmothers homemade preserves. They are made with no preservatives, no high fructose corn syrup and they come in the iconic jars with the checked lids.

Not to mention that you probably have a jar in your cabinet right now to use in this blueberry bundt cake. Oh, and they also have a jam, jelly and preserves Advent Calendar that sells out every year for Christmas just in case you have a jam lover on your list.

How to Make Blueberry Swirl Bundt Cake


  • Preheat oven to 325.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy.
  • Add the eggs one at a time and beat well after each addition. Then beat in the lemon zest and vanilla.
  • In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, salt and baking soda.
  • With the mixer on low gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture. Alternate flour mixture with sour cream. Begin and end with the flour mixture. Beat until just combined and stop to make sure to scrape the side and bottom.
  • Spray the bundt(12 cup) pan liberally with baking spray then coat with sugar.
  • Pour 2/3 of the batter into the pan. Tap the pan on the counter 4 or 5 times to release the air bubbles.
  • Using the back of a spoon make a well in the center of the batter
  • Stir together the fruit spread, the fresh blueberries and 1/4 cup of the batter then gently spoon this into the well that you made with the back of the spoon.
  • Use a knife to gently swirl the fruit mixture. Then pour or spoon the remaining batter over the top of the and gently spread the mixture to cover the entire pan.
  • Bake the cake for 1 hour and 5 minutes or until a toothpick or a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean.

Tips to Make the Best Bundt Cake


  • Read through the recipe first, then gather all of your ingredients.
  • Make sure the eggs and sour cream are at room temperature.
  • Make sure to spray the pan after you have prepared the batter, liberally coat it with sugar after spraying.
  • When adding the blueberry batter make sure to keep it in the well, this will keep the berries and fruit from sticking to the side of the pan.
  • Don’t over mix the batter.
  • Place cake in the center of the oven.
  • Be sure the oven is preheated.
  • Test the cake at 55 minutes, make sure the skewer comes out clean. But do not over bake the cake or it will be dry.
  • Let the cake cool 5 minutes in the pan before inverting it on a wire rack.
  • Cool completely before adding the glaze or the glaze will melt.
