Blueberry Lemon Coconut Bundt Cake

July 31, 2017 By Betsy Cohen

Blueberry Lemon Coconut Bundt Cake takes full advantage of the gorgeous berries at the peak of their season. Yumminess at its best.

Blueberry Lemon Coconut Bundt Cake

Do you love bundt cakes as much as I? There are several reasons why these cakes are at the top of my go-to list; they are so simple to make and look so darn purdy! Blueberry Lemon Coconut Bundt Cake is a great example.

I still have Mom’s bundt pans from when I was a child but I have bought several new ones, too. I find that the cakes come out of the pans easier now but, then again, technology has advanced a bit over the past 50+ years.

As far as this Blueberry Lemon Coconut Bundt Cake goes, I got the idea for it when I saw a package of blueberries that were at the peak of freshness. I know some people may have been tempted to eat them straight out of the box but let’s face it, that’s why I bought TWO!

Be sure to include both the lemon juice and zest in the cake. I find that only one doesn’t deliver enough of a lemony punch.

As for the glaze, nothing beats the simplicity of confectioners sugar and lemon juice. Adjust the thickness and tartness to your tastebuds.
