    What is Blueberry Buckle?

    You might be wondering what makes this a buckle, not a cake? A buckle usually has a cake batter and is topped with a fruit that the batter then “buckles” around as it bakes in the oven.

    This is the best Recipe for Blueberry Buckle

    We love this blueberry buckle because it has a delicious streusel topping similar to some coffee cakes.

    This buckle has just the right amount of sweetness. It’s not overly sweet and really lets the blueberry flavor shine.

    Blueberry Buckle Coffee Cake ingredients

    • All purpose flour – All purpose flour is used for this recipe.
    • Baking powder – This helps the cake rise.
    • Salt – A pinch of salt to balance the sweetness.
    • Butter – Unsalted butter is used.
    • Milk – Whole milk is best but you can use the milk you have on hand.
    • Sugar – Granulated white sugar is needed.
    • Eggs
    • Fresh blueberries
    • Cinnamon

    Step two: Next mix in the milk. Spread the batter in the prepared pan.

    Step three: In a separate bowl, mix together the crumbly streusel ingredients. Top the cake batter with fresh blueberries and then the streusel topping.
