Mini Lemon Blueberry Bundt Cake

These super moist Blueberry Bundt Cake bursting with flavors of lemon and fresh blueberries  is my  favorite cake.  The secret to this moist Blueberry Bundt Cake is the addition of  Greek yogurt and buttermilk which I have used in this recipe. Serve these cute looking bundt cakes with a dusting of powdered sugar or drizzle of glaze  during tea time gathering.

I have used fresh blueberries which are tossed in a little flour and sprinkle on layers and then covered with the final layer of the batter.This helps in keeping the blueberries from sinking to the bottom of the batter.  Use of Lemon zest gives a freshness to this Blueberry Bundt Cake.
