Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 18

CRUMBLE TOPPING
1/2 c brown sugar
1/2 c flour
1/2 c butter
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 c chopped nuts (optional)
CAKE
2 c flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3/4 c sugar
1/4 c butter, softened
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 c buttermilk
3 c fresh blueberries (or frozen, but do not thaw!)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Grease a 9″ square pan and set aside. In a medium bowl, combine the first 6 ingredients, mixing together with a fork until crumbly; set aside.
  • 2. In another medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
  • 3. In a large bowl, cream together the remaining butter and sugar. Blend in the egg and vanilla until smooth. Blend in the flour mixture and cream alternately, beginning and ending with the flour (flour, milk, flour, milk, flour). Fold in the blueberries. (The dough is quite stiff, so be patient as you're folding in the berries! Don't mush them up!)
  • 4. Spread the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle with the crumble topping. Bake for 50-60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool, and cut into 9 large squares.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or frozen blueberries for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have any sour cream, you can substitute plain yogurt or buttermilk.
  • Be sure to measure your flour correctly. Too much flour will make the cake dry.
  • Mix the wet and dry ingredients separately before combining them. This will help to prevent overmixing, which can make the cake tough.
  • Don't overbeat the batter. Overbeating will make the cake dense.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before serving.
  • Serve the cake with fresh fruit, whipped cream, or ice cream.
