RECIPE
Blueberry Crumb Cake
I love a good coffee cake and well when you add blueberries it is just the perfect morning snack. I don’t drink coffee, but my sister loved having this with a cup of coffee when she was visiting. I love just having it as a morning snack. I truly believe the cake part definitely needs to be moist for a good coffee cake. I also think it needs to have a lot of topping. I mean I am a sucker for streusel topping. So all my recipes that streusel topping probably have more than the norm.
It is important not to over mix. This will make the cake a little denser, which you don’t want. So when making this just mix until almost combined. I know you will enjoy making this and eating this, just like I did.
Happy Baking ????

Tips & Recommendations
Use fresh blueberries if you can. If using frozen blueberries, defrost and drain excess water. Cover tightly with plastic wrap to keep fresh for 5 days. I prefer dark brown sugar, but you can use light brown sugar. I always bake with Trader Joe’s butter, King Arthur Flour and Domino’s Sugar.
