Blueberry Buttermilk Coffee Cake
Per Portion: Not Available
Ingredients:
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 1/3 cups white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries *
  •  
  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 6 tablespoons butter, softened

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan. Sift together 4 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup butter and 1 1/3 cups sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk, mixing just until incorporated. With a spoon, gently stir in blueberries. Pour batter into prepared pan. In a small bowl, combine 2/3 cup flour, brown sugar and cinnamon. Cut in 6 tablespoons butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over top of batter.

Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool before cutting.

* If frozen, measure before thawing. To reduce “blue batter”, stir frozen blueberries into the batter while still slightly frozen.
