Method
 

Step-By-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your ingredients and equipment.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon with a pinch of salt. Whisk until evenly mixed.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1/2 cup of melted unsalted butter, 3/4 cup of milk, and 2 large eggs until smooth.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  5. Fold in 1 1/2 cups of fresh blueberries gently to preserve their shape.
  6. Pinch off pieces of dough and roll them into small balls. Layer them in the prepared bundt pan.
  7. Bake for 30–35 minutes until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Cool for about 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate and serve warm.

Notes

Fresh blueberries yield a burst of flavor. Avoid overmixing to keep texture light and fluffy. Ensure bundt pan is well-greased to prevent sticking.
