BluePoppyseed

Blueberry-Poppy Seed Brunch Cake won the 34th Pillsbury Bake-Off in 1990. Recipe on Pillsbury.com by Linda Rahman of Petaluma, California. A lemon flavored poppy seed cake with blueberry filling and powdered sugar/milk drizzle.

1

Start by beating butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add lemon peel and egg. Mix well.

2

Then add a mixture of flour, baking soda, salt and poppy seeds. Look what happened when I dumped the poppy seeds in. A spontaneous heart. I love it when that happens!

3

Add sour cream.

4

Spread batter over bottom and 1 inch up sides of greased and floured 9 or 10-inch springform pan, making sure batter on sides is 1/4 inch thick.

5

Add the filling (blueberries, sugar, flour and nutmeg) and bake at 350° for about 45 minutes.

6

After it cools a bit, drizzle with a mixture of powdered sugar and milk. Perfect for tea time or a brunch party.
