Superb Blueberry Streusel Coffee Cake
Superb Blueberry Streusel Coffee Cake
I have TONS of blueberries that I froze this summer. I’ve been scouring all of my resources finding the best blueberry recipes. This one is definitely a winner.
TOPPING
½ cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons flour (preferably whole wheat)
2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
¾ cup chopped walnuts
BATTER
2 cups flour (preferably whole wheat)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon Kosher or sea salt
½ cup unsalted butter
1 cup sugar or honey
2 teaspoons lemon zest (grated lemon rind)
3 eggs
1 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
2 cups fresh (or thawed frozen) blueberries
Measuring cups/spoons
Stand mixer
Mixing bowls
13 × 9 × 2 inch pan
Using butter and a light dusting of flour, grease the 13 × 9 × 2 inch pan
Prepare topping — combine all ingredients until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Stir in nuts and set aside.
Prepare batter — cream butter until fluffy, add sugar and lemon rind and beat well. Add eggs, one at a time, and beat well after each addition. Mix dry ingredients in a separate bowl and then add dry mixture alternately with the sour cream; blending well after each addition. Spread batter evenly over the bottom of a greased 13 × 9 × 2 inch pan. Sprinkle blueberries over batter. Sprinkle prepared topping over blueberries.
Bake at 350° degrees F for 30 – 35 minutes.

Hi Hallee,
How would this taste with nutmeg instead of cinnamon? I’m allergic to cinnamon, but I miss coffee cakes so much! (I wasn’t always allergic)
Thanks!

I think if you used fresh nutmeg and did a little at a time and taste the batter, it would be incredible. Blueberries and nutmeg should go very well together. Let me know how it works out!
Nice! I will.. if I ever get around to it. Maybe next time I have company. :) thanks!!
