Add the remaining 1/2 cup flour and the blueberries. You want the flour to coat the blueberries so they will not get too mushy.
• Be sure to grease the Bundt cake pan very well with shortening and coat with flour so that it will come out of the pan easily. Bake at 325°F for 1 hour and 10 minutes in a Bundt pan.

Steps:
