Blueberry Coffee Cake

Blueberry Coffee Cake

This AMAZING Blueberry Coffee Cake recipe is incredibly soft and moist, topped with a mouthwatering streusel topping. It’s perfect for serving a large group and can even be prepared the night before. Whether you enjoy it for breakfast or dessert, it’s sure to be a hit!

PREP: 15 MINS
COOK: 35 MINS
TOTAL: 50 MINS
SERVINGS: 15

Ingredients:

  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • ½ cup Shortening*
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 4 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 3 cups blueberries, fresh/frozen

Streusel Topping:

  • 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • ½ cup butter
  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour

Instruction:

  1. In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, cream together sugar and shortening until smooth. Add eggs, milk, and vanilla, and mix until well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, and salt. Then, add this mixture to the creamed mixture. Stir in the blueberries. The batter will be thick.
  3. Pour the batter into a greased 9×13 inch pan. Combine the topping ingredients and sprinkle them over the batter in the pan.
  4. Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 35-45 minutes. Be careful not to overbake, as it can make the cake dry. Let it cool before serving.
  5. Enjoy your Blueberry Coffee Cake with a cup of coffee or tea, or even with a scoop of ice cream!

Notes:

  • Shortening: You can use butter instead of shortening if you prefer. Shortening tends to make the cake softer and more tender.
  • Berries: Feel free to switch out the blueberries for any type of berry you like!
