- 1-1/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1/2 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 1 cup Ricotta Cheese
- 1 whole Meyer Or Regular Lemon, Zest And Juice
- 1 teaspoon Blueberry Balsamic Vinegar

- FOR THE LEMONY GLAZE:
- 1-1/2 cup Powdered Sugar
- 1 whole Meyer Or Regular Lemon, Zested
- 1-1/2 whole Meyer Or Regular Lemons, Juiced (using The One That Was Zested)
- 1/2 teaspoons Blueberry Balsamic Vinegar
- Preheat oven to 350u0b0F. Liberally butter a bundt pan and sprinkle it with flour.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon for the dry ingredients. In another bowl, stir together ricotta cheese, lemon zest, lemon juice and blueberry balsamic for the wet ingredients.
- Get out a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment. Thoroughly cream butter and sugar together in stand mixer bowl until fluffy and light. Add eggs. Turn speed to low and slowly add 1/3 of dry ingredients, followed by 1/2 of wet ingredients. Repeat with next 1/3 of dry ingredients and remainder of wet ingredients. Finish with last of dry ingredients until a soft cake batter forms. Switch to a rubber spatula and gently fold in fresh blueberries.
- Transfer cake batter into prepared bundt pan and smooth it out with the rubber spatula. Bake cake for 45-50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Allow cake to cool for at least 20-30 minutes, then carefully turn it out onto a cake plate to finish cooling.
- While cake cools, make the easy glaze. Simply stir powdered sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice and blueberry balsamic together thoroughly in a bowl until it is a thick, lovely glaze. While cake is still warm, drizzle glaze all over cake and let it coat it. Then serve with some extra fresh blueberries on the plate and enjoy!
