Steps:
- Crumble:
- Mix whole wheat flour, brown sugar, butter, and miso in a small bowl to combine. Set aside.
- Cake:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter pan, then lightly dust with whole wheat flour, tapping out excess. Whisk baking powder, salt, baking soda, and 1¾ cups flour in a large bowl to combine. Whisk eggs, brown sugar, and yogurt in a medium bowl to combine. Add vanilla and 1 cup melted butter; whisk just to incorporate. Using a rubber spatula, mix in dry ingredients, being careful not to overmix, then gently fold in blueberries. Scrape batter into prepared pan and spread out evenly. Top with reserved crumble.
- Bake cake, checking after 30 minutes and tenting with foil if crumble is getting very dark (some color is fine), until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 60-70 minutes total. Let cake cool in pan at least 2 hours (so it firms up and is easier to slice).
- Do Ahead: Cake can be baked 3 days ahead. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature.
BLUEBERRY CRUMB CAKE
It's easy to find an occasion to serve this cake - breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner or snacktime will do. The dominant flavor here is the berries. Don't be tempted to increase the amount of walnuts in the topping - scarcity makes them even more delightful.

Steps:
- Getting ready: Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter an 8x8-inch pan (Pyrex is great for this) and put it on a lined baking sheet.
- To make the crumbs: Put all the ingredients except the nuts in a food processor and pulse just until the mixture forms clumps and curds and holds together when pressed. Scrape the topping into a bowl, stir in the nuts and press a piece of plastic against the surface. Refrigerate until needed. (Covered well, the crumb mix can be refrigerated for about 3 days.)
- To make the cake batter: Using your fingertips, toss the blueberries and 2 teaspoons of the flour together just to coat the berries; set aside. Whisk together the remaining 2 cups flour, the baking powder, soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.
- Working in the bowl of a stand mixer or in another large bowl, rub the sugar and zest together with your fingertips until the sugar is moist and aromatic. Add the butter and, with the paddle or whisk attachment, or with a hand mixer, beat the sugar with the butter at medium speed until light, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one by one, beating for about 1 minute after each addition, then beat in the vanilla extract. Don't be concerned if the batter looks curdled - it will soon smooth out. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the flour mixture and the buttermilk alternately, the flour in 3 parts, the buttermilk in 2 (begin and end with the dry ingredients). You will have a thick, creamy batter. With a rubber spatula, gently stir in the berries.
- Scrape the batter into the buttered pan and smooth the top gently with the spatula. Pull the crumb mix from the refrigerator and, working with your fingertips, break it into pieces. There's no need to try to get even pieces - these are crumbs and they're supposed to be lumpy and bumpy and every shape and size. Scatter the crumbs over the batter, pressing them down ever so slightly.
- Slide the sheet into the oven and bake 55 to 65 minutes, or until the crumbs are golden and a knife inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Transfer the cake to a rack and cool just until it is warm or until it reaches room temperature.

BLUEBERRY CRUMB CAKE
For weekend entertaining, planning a menu that can be made in large quantities is essential. A host expecting weekend guests should shop ahead and, well before guests arrive, prepare the recipes that will keep, saving the most perishable for the last minute. Take this cake that Molly O'Neill brought into The Times in 1993, a confection that can play dessert as well as breakfast. As a dessert, slices of the cake can be garnished with whipped cream, a compote of fresh berries or ice cream. For breakfast, slices can be toasted and served with butter, fresh ricotta or marscapone, or warmed in the oven and served with fresh fruit.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. To make the topping, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon and salt in a bowl. Add the butter, and rub it in with your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Set aside.

Tips:
- Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor. If using frozen blueberries, thaw them completely and drain them well before using.
- Make sure the miso paste is well dissolved in the wet ingredients before adding the dry ingredients. This will help to prevent lumps.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough cake.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Do not overbake, as this can result in a dry cake.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before serving. This will help to set the crumb topping.
Conclusion:
This blueberry miso crumb cake is a delicious and unique twist on a classic recipe. The miso paste adds a subtle savory flavor that complements the sweetness of the blueberries. The crumb topping is buttery and crunchy, and it adds a nice textural contrast to the cake. This cake is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert.
