•
1 1/2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
•
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
•
1/3 cup almond flour
•
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
•
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
•
1 1/2 cups white sugar
•
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
•
3 large eggs, at room temperature
•
1 cup buttermilk
•
1/2 cup lemon curd
•
2 teaspoons lemon zest
•
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
•
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
•
1/4 cup lemon juice
•
1 teaspoon lemon zest
•
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
•
1 teaspoon unsalted butter
•
1 tablespoon fresh blueberries, or as needed
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).
2
Pat blueberries dry and place into a plastic bag. Toss with 1 1/2 teaspoons flour until all berries are dusted. Set aside.
3
Combine 2 1/2 cups flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl; stir with a fork until well blended.
4
Combine sugar and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer. Cream together on high speed until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Reduce speed to low; add eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each addition and scraping the bowl as needed.
5
Mix in about 1/3 of the flour mixture, followed by 1/2 of the buttermilk, beating after each addition. Repeat, ending with the final 1/3 of the flour mixture. Add lemon curd, lemon zest, and vanilla extract; beat until just combined. Turn off the mixer and fold in blueberries.
6
Pour batter into the prepared pan, cleaning the mixer bowl and beater with a scraper. Tap the tube pan lightly to remove any pockets of air.
7
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 55 to 65 minutes. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack, about 30 minutes. Turn out onto a decorative plate.
8
Stir powdered sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and salt together in a microwave-safe glass bowl for the glaze. Place butter on top of the glaze and microwave until the mixture bubbles and the butter is melted, about 1 minute. Whisk until smooth. Allow glaze to cool for about 15 minutes; pour over cake. Garnish with blueberries, if desired.
