Description

This blueberry buckle is a tender, made-from-scratch coffee cake studded with fresh blueberries and topped with a buttery, crumbly cinnamon streusel.

Ingredients

3/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup shortening
1 large egg
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
2 cups fresh blueberries
1/2 cup white sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease an 8x8-inch pan.
2 Beat sugar, butter, and egg in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Stir flour, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl. Add flour mixture to sugar mixture in 2 batches, alternating with milk, beating batter briefly after each addition. Fold in blueberries. Pour into the prepared pan.
3 To make the topping: Combine sugar, flour, butter, and cinnamon in a bowl; mix with your hands until crumbly. Sprinkle over cake batter.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes.
