This coffee cake is moist, easy to make and liberally studded with juicy berries. It can be made any time of year with frozen berries. It feeds a crowd and can even be made the night before. Enjoy it for breakfast or dessert.

 

Ingredients

  • For the Coffee Cake
  • 2 c. frozen Oregon Blueberries 
  • 2 c. flour 
  • 1/2 c. sugar
  • 2 tsp. baking powder 
  • 1 egg
  • 1 c. milk 
  • 1/4 c. butter, softened
  • For the Crumb Topping
  • 3/4 c. flour
  • 1/2 c. brown sugar
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon 
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • 5 Tbs. melted butter 
  • For the Drizzle
  • 1/2 c. powdered sugar
  • 2 Tbs. milk
  • 1/8 tsp. cinnamon 

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 350° and grease a 9-inch square baking dish. 
  • Prepare the crumb topping by combining flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt and mix until combined. Add the melted butter and mix until the dough is thoroughly combined. Set aside. 
  • In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and baking powder.
  • In a separate bowl mix egg and milk, add to the dry ingredients until fully combined then add the softened butter. (This batter will be very thick.)
  • Gently fold in the frozen blueberries. (Because the batter is so thick be careful not to over mix or the batter will become discolored from the blueberries.) 
  • Spread the blueberry batter into the prepared baking dish then top with the crumb topping mixture by gently crumbling it with your hands over the cake batter. 
  • Bake for 50-55 minutes.
  • Once the cake has cooled slightly, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and cinnamon and drizzle over the coffee cake. Serve and enjoy!
