The Best Coffee Cake

I am so happy blueberries are back in season and finally a reasonable price. Our grocery bill was suffering because of Caleb’s blueberry addiction. He eats blueberries by the handfuls. I am glad I can buy a big container that doesn’t hurt our bank account. And since blueberries have been on sale lately, I have even buying extra blueberries to bake with. I don’t dare steal from Caleb’s stash, I buy my own. He is pretty protective of his blueberries:) I used my beautiful blueberries to make a Blueberry Coffee Cake. I love coffee cake and this one is extra special because of the plump blueberries inside. It the perfect coffee cake for summertime!

How to Make Blueberry Coffee Cake

I really don’t know why coffee cake is called coffee cake because there is no coffee involved. I am guessing maybe because people like to eat coffee cake with their coffee? Anyone know the history behind this delicious cake? I don’t know how coffee cake got it’s name, but that didn’t stop me from baking a Blueberry Coffee Cake. This cake is not complicated. You probably have all of the ingredients in your kitchen right now…as long as you have blueberries. If you don’t, hurry to the store, they are probably on sale! If they aren’t and you don’t want to splurge, frozen blueberries will work too! The cake is moist, tender and dotted with plump juicy blueberries. The cinnamon streusel topping is really the icing on the cake. Who needs icing when you have a crunchy streusel topping? I am such a sucker for streusel.

Blueberry Surprise

I made this cake on a Sunday morning and we enjoyed it for breakfast. Caleb was thrilled we were having cake for breakfast and he was even more excited when he discovered there were blueberries inside. It was a good morning! Take advantage of blueberry season and make this delightful Blueberry Coffee Cake. It is great for breakfast, dessert…or anytime of the day! I might have snuck a second piece as an afternoon snack:) And if you are looking for something special to make for your 4th of July breakfast, I highly recommend this Blueberry Coffee Cake! It is the perfect way to celebrate the holiday!
