Lemon Aid Blueberry Bundt Cake

Refreshing summer treat of lemon cake and blueberries. This is a very light batter bundt cake with a light lemon flavor. It is made in a 6-cup bundt pan or a standard loaf pan if you don’t have a small bundt pan. The sugar and butter have to be beat until it is light and fluffy. This will give the cake the texture of a chiffon cake. The liquid in the cake is lemon aid which gives it a very light lemon flavor.

I used a Nordic Ware 6-cup bundt pan. I have had it since the 1980’s and it bakes beautifully and evenly because it is heavy aluminum. It is a great pan to have when you want to bake a small cake. I normally half a bundt cake recipe to use it. You can still buy this pan from Nordic Ware and other 6-cup bundt pans. I was lucky to find it in a thrift store.
