Yield 8 slices

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup frozen or fresh blueberries- if you use frozen, do not thaw or your batter will turn purple
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3 extra large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/4 cups cake flour*
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 teaspoon salt
Zest of 2 lemons
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
Glaze
zest (optional but adds a wonderfully tart texture) and juice of 4 lemons, approximately 1/4 cup
1 cup confectioners sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Generously grease a 8 1/2 inch loaf pan with 1 tablespoon butter. 2. Place the 12 tablespoons butter in large bowl and beat on medium speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the sugar and cream together. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing and scraping in between each egg addition. 3. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, powder, salt, and cornmeal. Add to the butter mixture in 3 stages, mixing well after each addition. 4. Add the lemon zest and juice. Fold in blueberries. Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan. It should be very thick, so spread it evenly throughout the pan. 5. Bake 45 minutes, until the cake is light golden on top and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out slightly moist. 6. Glaze- Combine lemon juice and confectioners sugar. Let cake cool about 10 minutes and pour 1/2 of glaze over cake. Let sit for another 15-20 minutes and pour over rest of glaze over cake. * if you do not have cake flour, use 1 Tablespoon less of all pupose flour.

I'm not usually a fan of pound cake, but this one is amazing! The cornmeal gives it a really nice texture and the lemon and blueberries are the perfect combination of flavors.
