5-Ingredient Blueberry Bundt cake takes five easy add-ins to make a deliciously moist and fruity Bundt, complete with an icing glaze.
5-Ingredient Blueberry Bundt Cake
By Sue Lau | Palatable Pastime
My recipe of the day is for an easy to make 5-ingredient Bundt cake with the Bundt Bakers group. This month we are tasked with posting recipes with relatively few ingredients.
At first I was a bit flummoxed because I really couldn’t think of much to make that wouldn’t just be terribly plain. I mean, I imagine others have very great ideas on that, but I have never been exactly known for having short ingredient lists.
I do love playing around with lots of ingredients and flavors! Nothing wrong with that.
Easy is Good
But obviously, easy is also fantastic if you can make it work, and these ingredients do. And nobody said I couldn’t use a cake mix. In fact I have done it before and think it is a great timesaver. As well as a money saver if you can get a box on sale for a buck or so.
I know I have made dump cake before, which is really more like a cobbler, but it was really yummy!
Sour Cream Romance
And this one is really sort of like that but still comes out on top as a cake. And dig that crazy glaze- I even found a way to squeeze some sour cream in there since I have been amorous of using sour cream lately.
I get that way. It will pass. Do you ever find yourself using an ingredient over and over then suddenly drop it?
And I haven’t gotten over sour cream just yet. I can almost taste it on baked potatoes…

5-Ingredient Blueberry Bundt Cake
Equipment
- Bundt pan
Ingredients
- 1 15.25 ounce box yellow cake mix
- 1 21 ounce can blueberry pie filling
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup sour cream divided
- 1-1/2 cups powdered sugar sifted
- 1/2 teaspoon water (if needed)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Spray a regular Bundt pan with Baker's release spray or grease and flour (not included in ingredient amount, but hey...)
- Stir together the cake mix, pie filling, eggs and 1/4 cup of sour cream to make a smooth batter and spread in Bundt pan.
- Bake for 40-50 minutes (I did 45) or until a toothpick comes out without wet batter sticking to it.
- Cool 15 minutes in pan, then turn out of pan and finish cooling on a wire rack.
- Stir together the remaining quarter cup of sour cream with the powdered sugar, (adding water if needed to thin to a drizzling consistency) and drizzle over cake.
- Allow icing to set up and dry, about 45 minutes.
This was a tough challenge for sure but your cake looks delicious.
That looks wonderful!! Love the glaze!
Love it! Looks great…and is probably something I would actually eat! Embrace the cake mix! There is no shame!!! Flavor counts!!!
It is indeed yummy- and much larger, albeit still round, than a blueberry donut at the bake shop! More blueberry for my buck. 🙂
It looks perfect for a snowy winter day we’re having.
I am not a huge fan of the canned pie filling for actual pie but boy, howdy, I can totally get behind them as an add-on to cake! Lovely Bundt, Sue!
The canned always seemed more like something restaurants would top NY Cheesecake with. At least in the 70’s and 80’s.
Really delicious … a good idea!
Love that frosted blueberry bundt!
Can I use frozen blueberries and if yes how many cups.
You would have to prepare blueberry pie filling first from scratch with those.
