Blueberry Swirl Pound Cake is the perfect spring treat. Dense, yet tender & oh so delicious, you’ll have everyone asking for this easy pound cake recipe loaded with blueberries.
You all know I absolutely love a tasty little snack with my coffee on the weekends. We did a huge Costco run & picked up a ton of produce. Is it just me- or do they always have the best produce? We literally filled our cart to the point that the checker girl asked us if we were having some sort of party. 🙂 hehehe – No, just stocking up on produce. I’m sure she thought we were nuts. But anyhow- one thing I picked up was blueberries.

The family loves anything made with blueberries. Put a little in the oatmeal with a little bit of Blueberry Freezer Jam. Mmmmm – so good. Or maybe a little slice of this Blueberry Swirl Pound Cake. So yummy.
Just look at those colors!! That swirl is just too pretty! I love making this spring treat all season long. Think of how perfect this would be at a brunch or Mother’s Day celebration. Although, I am just as happy having this with my weekend coffee, no holiday or celebration required.
The shades of blue just make me happy.

I made the cake and the freezer jam, both were great. I followed the directions using 2 , nine inch bread pans and found them to be very thin cakes. Loved the recipe but wouldn’t put it in 2 pans in the future.

This pound cake looks amazing!!! I can’t wait to try it 🙂
Gina Kleinworth says
Thank you Aimee – made me smile to see you here!
Connie says
Made this today and it looked and tasted delicious. I reduced the sugar to 3/4 cup and baked in just one parchment paper lined loaf pan. I used blueberry preserves instead of jam because that was what I had. Baking time 60-65 minutes, depending on your oven.
Thank you for this wonderful recipe!

What is I don’t have sour cream what do I use
Gina Kleinworth says
You can use Greek yogurt in place of sour cream as a 1:1 sub.Mayonnaise – 1:1Buttermilk – reducing the amount and only using 3/4 of what is called for in the recipe. (1/4 cup + 2 tbsp for this recipe) It will be thinner – but will still bake well.Cream Cheese – only using 3 ounces + 1 tbsp milk whisked together before adding to the recipe.

For those who are wild about lemon, would two Tablespoons of lemon juice be too much?
Kathy says
Correction. Would two More Tablespoons of lemon be too much? A total of 4 Tablespoons for those of us wild about lemon.
Gina Kleinworth says
For this pound cake, you could probably get away with that. I might start with 1 additional and see how that goes. But as it is written, the flavors of the lemon and blueberry balance. I do have a lemon pound cake recipe (https://www.kleinworthco.com/lemon-pound-cake/) if you wanted something without the blueberry.

I baked this for a one year birthday party. I added 1 Tablespoon extra lemon and we all loved it. The cake is dense and moist and fabulous! I doubled the recipe and baked it in 2 11×4 inch pans. Thank you! Next time I’m trying 4 tablespoons of lemon juice for fun!
