Perfect for Sunday morning breakfast, a baby shower or just because you love lemon and blueberries, this Lemon Blueberry Bundt Cake:
I go through ups and downs with cooking- when I get stressed I either cook and bake a ton or eat out a lot. (makes zero sense, I know) Lately I’ve been on a health kick after a tough year last year and have been cooking much healthier. I miss my treats!
This bundt cake is light and refreshing.

Can you use self rising flour instead of a/p flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt? Would cut out 3 ingredients.
