How To Make blueberry coffee cake

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 7×11 or 9×9-inch baking dish with butter or shortening.
  • 2
    In a medium bowl, combine the streusel topping ingredients, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter. Using a pastry knife cut in the butter until it is crumbly. Cover it and refrigerate while you are mixing the blueberry cake.
  • 3
    Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
  • 4
    In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time and vanilla extract and beat on low just until combined. Scrape down the bowl and beaters when needed.
  • 5
    Stir in the flour mixture and the milk in 3 increments, alternating between the two. Mix just until combined.
  • 6
    Gently stir in the blueberries. The batter will be thick. Spoon it into the prepared baking dish. Use an offset spatula to level the batter. Sprinkle evenly with the streusel.
  • 7
    Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • 8
    Cool for 30 minutes before slicing.
