Stir together 2 cups flour and the baking powder. Beat into butter mixture alternately with the milk, mixing just until incorporated. Pour batter over the berries in the pan.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 340F (regular bake/not fan-assisted) with rack in centre of oven. Grease a 9-inch, two-piece tube pan (*see note) and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl with an electric mixer or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the sugar, eggs and sour cream at medium speed (Speed 4 on stand miser) for A FULL 3 minutes. *Don't skimp on this process, as it is important for the finished texture of the cake. The mixture won't thicken a lot, but will become lighter in colour and be foamy, with lots of small bubbles).
- With mixer on low, slowly add the oil and mix in until combined. With mixer still on low, spoon in the flour mixture until combined, then beat the mixture at medium speed for about 30 seconds.
- Spoon batter into prepared tube pan and smooth the top. (*Note that the batter will only fill the pan about 1/3 the way up).
- Scatter the blueberries on top of batter, then sprinkle with the white sugar.
- Bake in preheated oven for about 55- 60 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. **The top of the cake will stay very pale, even when done, so don't judge the readiness of the cake on the colour of the top of the cake. Look at the very outside edges, which should be golden and pulling away from the side of the pan, then test with a skewer.
- Remove from oven and let cool in pan for about 10 minutes. Run a knife around the outside of the cake, then gently push up from the bottom, removing the cake from the sides, but still sitting on the base. Allow to cool a bit more, then carefully run a knife around the centre tube. Gently lift the cake off the base/tube and allow to cool completely on a cooling rack.
- Serve dusted with confectioners/icing sugar, if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter just the sides of a 9-inch round cake pan.
- For the caramel topping: Stir the sugar and 1/3 cup water in a medium saucepan over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Stop stirring, and gently swirl the saucepan occasionally until the mixture is the color of light amber, 4 to 5 minutes. If needed, brush any sugar crystals off the side of the pan with a wet pastry brush. Remove the saucepan from the heat, and carefully whisk in the butter (take care: the mixture can bubble up considerably). Pour the caramel into the prepared cake pan, tilting the pan to cover most of the bottom (be careful: the pan will be very hot from the caramel). Scatter the blueberries over the caramel.
- For the cake: Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk the milk and sour cream together in a small bowl.
- Beat the butter and sugar together with an electric mixer on medium-high speed in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating after each addition and scraping down the side of the bowl as needed, then beat in the vanilla and lemon zest. Reduce the mixer speed to low, and add the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the milk-sour cream mixture, mixing until just incorporated.
- Pour the batter over the blueberries in the cake pan, and spread evenly. Bake the cake until it is golden brown and bounces back when pressed and a toothpick or cake tester comes out clean when inserted in the center, 50 to 60 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of the cake to separate it from the pan. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack until just cool enough to handle, about 30 minutes. Invert a serving platter over the cake pan and, while holding them together, quickly flip them over so the cake unmolds, blueberry-side up. Let cool completely. Cut into wedges, and serve.

- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the sugar with the room temperature butter on medium speed until fluffy, then increase to high speed for 3 to 5 minutes. Turn off the mixer, add the cream cheese ,and then mix on medium speed.
- In a medium bowl, whisk to combine the flour, baking powder and salt.
- Turn the mixer off and add the eggs, then mix on low speed to beat in the eggs. Add the flour mixture slowly, then add the milk and vanilla extract and mix until combined. Spread the batter over the fruit and transfer to the oven.
