One Bowl Berry Coffee Cake

Blueberry Almond Bundt Cake

I love bundt cakes. For some reason I just really enjoy using my bundt pan over any other cake pan. I still have some blueberries in the freezer from a few weeks ago and we're going to visit my mother-in-law tomorrow, so I wanted to bring something.
