Hate saying goodbye so I choose to say thank you instead :) Today I had my last lecture with a very small but very nice group of 4 students. We had so much fun together, at least I hope they also had fun and that they learned.
Last week I tried a lovely sour cream pound cake recipe. Even though I searched for a new inspiration this week, I turned to the one I already tried in the end. To make it new, I went for blueberries and lemon this time. My lovely mum picked some most wonderful blueberries last summer for me. Just look at the size of those! No wonder I'm always having a hard time deciding how to use them. I usually take a spoonful or two with a bowl of yoghurt or oatmeal in the morning but that's about it. I tend not to "waste" them to baking but today they were totally worth the "waste"! Who wouldn't like a moist, lemony cake with the precious blueberries? I think I can tell that the cake was appreciated! :)
I wish I had baked the cake a little bit longer, but I was in a hurry and when the cake was just done, it had to get out from the oven..Next time it'll be just perfect! :)
Blueberry&lemon sour cream pound cake
Ingredients:
100 g butter softened
1 cup caster sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla sugar or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs
2 dl sour cream
zest and juice of 1 lemon
1 1/2 cups plain flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
about 1 1/2 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen) + 1 tablespoon plain flour
Method:
1. Store the eggs, sour cream and butter at the room temperature for about 30 minutes before you start.
2. Set oven to 175 degrees. Grease and flour a high rectangular cake mold.
3. You can soften the butter a little by using a microwave oven.
4. Beat the butter and add sugar, beat again until fluffy and smooth.
5. Beat in eggs, one by one. Mix in the zest and juice of 1 lemon.
6. Mix in the mixture of flour, baking soda and baking powder alternately with the sour cream.
7. Put the frozen or fresh blueberries in a bowl together with the tablespoon of flour. Toss the bowl so that the blueberries are evenly floured. This procedure is to prevent the fruit from sinking to the bottom of the cake.
8. Gently mix the blueberries into the dough. Transfer into the cake mold and bake for about 45-50 minutes.
