Instructions
00:00 Introduction
00:22 Preheat oven to 350F and line three 8” round cake pans by lightly but thoroughly greasing and flouring the sides and lining the bottoms with parchment paper. Set aside.
00:27 In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
00:49 Using an electric mixer, add softened butter, one tablespoon at a time, adding the next tablespoon only after the first is combined. The mixture will appear sandy in texture.
01:47 While mixing on low-speed, slowly drizzle in oil.
02:24 In a separate bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together buttermilk, lemon zest, lemon juice, eggs, and vanilla extract until combined.
04:23 With mixer on low-speed, slowly drizzle in the buttermilk mixture until the batter is smooth and completely combined.
04:43 Use a spatula to stir in blueberries.
04:54 Evenly divide batter into prepared cake pans and transfer to 350F oven (if your oven is not large enough for all three pans or if you only have two pans, it is fine to let the remaining batter sit on the counter while the first two pans bake. If all of your pans do fit in the oven, make sure to keep an eye on them as most ovens do not cook evenly and some pans may be done sooner than others). Bake for 30 minutes or until the surface of the cake springs back to the touch and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
06:17 Allow cakes to cool in cake pans for 10-15 minutes before running a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen cakes and carefully inverting onto a cooling rack to cool completely before decorating.
06:37 Once cooled completely, decorate the cake using lemon frosting (or preferred frosting).

Can't wait to make this cake. Looks delicious, I'm so glad it doesn't have chocolate or nuts and strawberry's, the most popular things. I'll post and fill u in when I'm done. Cooks
@@SugarSpunRun looks very tasty indeed
Thanks for this! I'm actually gonna try it this weekend now. I love that she researches her recipes!
It looks phenomenal
You get right to the point. No wasted conversation
Girlll I made this cake for my man,and the next day he asked me to marry him!!!thanks for giving me this recipe on how to trap a man with a cake pan!!
🤣🤣🤣 I love a good success story!
Dexter how are you and your husband? Want to make him this cake again for the anniversary of the proposal? 🏳️🌈👨❤️👨
Lemon and blueberry are such soulmates, aren't they?. This cake would be a wonderful dessert on Mother's Day or as cupcakes for potluck.
Definitely! :)
That was my plan for mom 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Really tart lemon sweet fresh blueberry!
I'm making it a couple days after Mother's Day! Pregnant 🤰 and craving lemon blueberry 🫐
Congratulations on your pregnancy 🎉 Yesterday I ordered one of those thick waffle makers because I'm craving blueberry waffles with a light spread of lemon cream cheese on top, as a change from syrup.
I’m making this for Easter!
Edit: it was amazing!
I hope you love it! :)
I made this cake last night to take into work. Everyone raved about it, especially my boss who said she is a cake snob. I made your lemon icing too and agree that it is the best lemon icing I have ever had. A++ for you!
I'm so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! :)
Made this cake last summer and was a huge success. Everybody loved it and couldn’t believe I (65 year old male and retired) made it. Getting ready to make it again tomorrow. Thanks for a wonderful recipe.
I'm so glad it was a hit! Thanks for commenting ❤️
Made this for the first time yesterday and took it to a church dinner with out trying it first. I also used your lemon curd butter cream frosting you recommended. It was a big hit. More than one person went for a second piece. One person said that it was the best cake she ever had. Thanks for sharing this recipe and providing clear,easy to follow instructions. I highly recommend this recipe- follow it to the letter and it will turn out wonderfully.
I just made this for my wife's birthday. The cake itself is not very sweet, which she loves. The frosting is the perfect blend of sweet and lemon tart to compliment the cake. I wasn't sure how I would like it having tasted the cake by itself from cuttings before I assembled, but once it was all together it was quite good. Thank you for the recipe! (BTW this was my first ever cake from scratch)
I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it! That’s a great cake to start from scratch baking. 😊😊
The "not very sweet" is what sold me. I'm gonna try it
I loved the slightly sad music when the handheld mixer was introduced. ☺️
🤣
I just love all lemon blueberry combos...so yummy.
I just love how you make your recipes so simple to follow! I have tried them before and will definitely make this delicious cake! Thanks for sharing!
It is my second time to bake this cake for my daughter’s birthday. We loved the recipe and lt is the perfect cake for our family. I want to try other cake recipes for other times. Thank you ❤

A real "show stopper!" The frosting really puts this cake over-the-top. Thanks for the recipe.
I'm so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! :)
Going to make this to celebrate Beltane / May Day this year 💙 lemons and blueberries are so beautiful together- I can’t wait!
I hope you love it! 😊
Sam thank you for sharing your recipes. I had a ladies get together dinner last night, so I made this but turned them into cupcakes. Easier to eat at a restaurant. Made with your lemon frosting. They were in love with them. Plenty for them to take home & enjoy again. You are a true professional baker. So glad I found your page. Looking forward to your next recipe. Boston creme cupcakes next week.
I can't wait to try this one! I've tried about 4 of your recipes and they're always a crowd pleaser! My mother-in-law LOVES your pancake recipe.
That is so nice to hear! I hope you love this one too 😊
Whose mouth watered when she worked with the lemons?
I made the lemon curd last night and now getting ready to make the cake for my mom's birthday today 😋 Thanks Sam 💕
I hope everyone loves it!! Happy birthday to your mom!! 😊😊
I'm going to make it for my mum this Sunday too! Hope I do it justice
@@krysmegmah28 It was fantastic, everyone really enjoyed it.
Happy birthday to your mom!
I just made this last night for my mother's birthday :D
Hi! I made this cake today, and my family said it's one of the best cakes I've ever made. That sponge cake with the blueberries is so so delicious, and I also used your lemon curd frosting. Incredible recipe!
It was absolutely delicious! My granddaughter made it on Easter.
I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it!! 😊😊
Excellent combination!!!
Thank you!
THANK YOU! I made this for the 1st time and made it with gluten-free flour for a birthday party. What a risk!! Everyone LOVED it! It was moist (which says a lot for GF), not too sweet...absolutely a hit. Please do gluten-free breads! I'll be trying more. Thanks so much!🎂🍞
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! Unfortunately I don't really specialize in gluten free things though. :(
My pleasure 😊❤️
Hi which gluten free flour did you use? Did you make any other changes to the recipe?

One of my buddies recently had surgery, and she LOVES my blueberry pies. I think I'll try and make her one of these.
I hope she loves it and good luck to her. I wish her a speedy recovery!

I made this yesterday. This cake is so good. The icing was so light and refreshing.
Glad you liked it!!
Made this on the weekend and everyone loved it! Will definitely make it again! My addition… decorated it with fresh raspberries, which tasted and looked delicious
I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it! 😊😊
Sound so delicious and is very beautiful, a must try. Thank you for sharing.
I hope you love it! :)
It’s a fascinating method that I haven’t ever heard of either, and I’ve been baking 30 odd years…will def give it a bash!
That cake looks so delicious! 😋
Thank you--it is!
This cake with your frosting is now my family’s favorite cake. Thank you for sharing your recipes
I'm so glad to hear it!
I made this for a women's get together on Friday. I made it in a bundt pan and I used your icing recipe also. It was a huge hit! Several women wanted the recipe. I had to bake it a little longer than you called for because of it being a bundt, but it came out perfect. Thanks so much!
I'm so glad everyone enjoyed it so much! :)
Im doing a bundt tin as well. In my insta pot.
Sounds delicious! I have been making a similar cake since the recope was given to me in the mid 1970s. The recipe uses whipping cream instead of butter milk and includes ground walnuts but no lemon in the batter. In addition, the lemon frosting is only between the layers and powdered sugar is dusted on the top. I often make handman paper templates with messages or patterns that I hold over the top while dusting the powderded sugar for celebrative messages. 😋
Sounds delicious! 😊😊
Made it for my friend's birthday. She loved it. This was my first time making lemon curd. Your video and instructions were easy to follow. Can't wait to try another recipe.
That’s so great to hear! I’m so glad you enjoyed the cake and the videos. I’m always nervous I won’t be clear enough so it’s good to hear the videos helped. 😊
I will be trying this soon. THankYou for sharing.
I hope you love it! 😊
I made this cake today and it was delicious 😋 thank you for this wonderful recipe will definitely be making more of your recipes
That’s so awesome to hear!!! Thank you for the feedback! 😊
I baked my first cake ever today. This one because it sounded interesting and looked great. I made a few mistakes and the cake wasn't of display quality but it tasted great. Thanks
Mistakes:
- My pans were too big so it became a two layer cake
- I used castor sugar in the frosting instead of icing sugar so the frosting was a bit gritty. I wasn't sure what "powdered sugar" was
- I put the frosting on the cake while the sheets were still a bit warm so the frosting melted and I redid it after cooling the cake in the fridge
Otherwise, perfect
Sounds like you still did pretty well for your first cake! Keep on baking and you'll just keep getting better and better 🥰 Thanks so much for trying my recipe!
This looks incredibly delicious 😋
Thank you! It's so good!
I made this cake, with the lemon frosting, for Mother’s Day and it was a hit! My cake platter came home with only crumbs left! Thank you this delicious recipe.
Wonderful! I'm so glad it was a hit!
That looks so yummy, but so does everything u post. I don't know how ima decide what ima make for Easter to go along with ur Carrot Cake this 1 definitely looks refreshing & delicious🤤😋🐰🐣
Thank you so much! Both are great options for Easter 😁
I'm going to be making Sam's hummingbird cake for Easter... Really I take any excuse to make that one 😉
Oh wow!! I'm gonna make this for my Birthday next month.😍
P.S. I was wondering where you got your top? It's super cute!
I actually got it from Unique Vintage. I hope you love the cake! 😊
This and the loaded potato soup are my fave recipes by you so far
Glad you like them!
wow that is classic Sam thank you
Thank you! 😊
This looks amazing. Question: Instead of using three 8-inch round pie pans, assuming it can also be baked in a large rectangular pan, say 13x9? Would the temperature and bake time differ? Thank you.
Yes it can! Make sure you don’t overfill your pan (you may have a little excess batter) and keep an eye on it as I'm not sure how long it will need to bake. The temperature will stay the same 🙂
(Not the original commenter) but thank you so much for the reply! We’re making it this way too!
Just making this...it's in the oven, so I'll edit once I get it all together. The reverse creaming method took a year and a day, so I hope that it makes enough difference to be worth the time. Maybe my butter wasn't quite softened enough. I'm going to take it as a dessert for a few of us who are getting together at an open house at a winery we belong to later this afternoon. Blueberries are the last of a bumper crop from our own bushes this year - I've made a couple of batches of muffins and a bunch of jam already, but didn't want to miss out on trying this cake!
I hope everyone loves the cake! 😊
WOW YUMMY 😋 Thank you for sharing!!
My pleasure 😊
I have made quite a few of your cakes and I haven’t had anything but compliments. I am a UPS truck driver so baking seems a little hard to believe for some but I do enjoy it. Thanks for your videos they are spot on.
Great to hear! Thanks for trusting my recipes 🥰
You can also acheive the soft, tender crumb by creaming in the normal fashion, and using cake flour instead of all purpose.
what is the different between cake flour and all purpose?
like what would happen to the cake
@@jen6224 Cake flour has very little gluten, so it makes the cake more tender
Very nice blueberry cake! How muchs is the blueberry grams? Have a nice day! 👍👏🍴
About 340 grams 😊
@@SugarSpunRun Thanks! 🙂🙂🙂
I'm getting ready to go to Safeway to pick up all the ingredients. So Excited!!! I love ANYTHING lemon and love blueberries
I hope you love the cake!! 😊😊
Hi Sam, I made this cake for my dad’s birthday, he and everyone loved it! It turned very well. Thanks for the recipe!
You’re welcome! I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it! 😊
That lemon blueberry cake looks delicious. However, when my grans come over to visit, I often treat them to chilled fresh avocadoes just plucked from my tree - as a healthy high protein KETO friendly alternative to cake. . Sure enough, as soon as they walk through the door, instead of asking for pizza or junk food, they head for the pantry and ask me, "Gwampa, let's have some more of that wundaful gween vedgebul ice cweam pweez." I hand them each a half of an avocaodo and a spoon - . Once they've all had their fill of avocado, we all go outside and plant the avocado seeds in the backyard,, hoping the family dog doesn't dig 'em up and eat 'em 'before they have a chance to add to the earth's sustainable bounty by growing into big new beautiful avocado trees! to match the one I already have. That family dog will eat just about anything. Just this morning, I saw him eating what appeared to be the handle from an old hammer i used about 40 years ago during some DIY renovations to the old shed out back. I've been wondering for a long time what became of that hammer. Now I finally know. The darned thing got buried - probably by either this dog or one of his predecessors. Thank you Sugar Spun Run for allowing me to share.
I’m here because I like cake 🍰
Oooooooh girl, that looks amazing!
Thank you so much! 🙂
Made this cake and my family loved it. It's moist and not too sweet. Love the blueberries and lemons in the cake. Will make it again.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)
Going to make this for my daughter's birthday this weekend! So excited :)
Happy Birthday to your daughter! Enjoy! :)
