Ingredients

1 cup softened butter
1 ¾ cups of granulated sugar
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon lavender buds grind with grinder or pestle and mortar
1 teaspoon salt
¾ cup sour cream
1 cup blackberry preserves

Blackberry Glaze

½ cup blackberry preserves seedless
1 ½ cups powdered sugar

Instructions

Preheat oven to 300°.
Spray a 12 cup bundt pan with cooking spray and flour, or a non-stick baking spray that already has flour in it.

Make the cake

Cream the butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing between each egg. Make sure to scrape the sides. Add the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl mix the flour, soda, cinnamon, lavender, and salt together.
Mix the flour mixture and the sour cream into the creamed butter, mixing just until combined. Don't overmix!
Add the blackberry preserves and mix gently just until combined.
Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan. It should not be more than ⅔ full. Bake for 15 minutes at 300° and then increase heat to 350° for an additional 40 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Let cool for about 10-15 minutes and then remove from pan and place on a wire rack to cool completely.

Prepare the glaze

Once the cake is completely cool, heat the remaining blackberry preserves in a saucepan.
Add powdered sugar and stir until desired consistency. Drizzle on the cake and then add fresh blackberries or mint just before serving.
