It is one of my favorite things to eat. Blueberry coffee cake. But of course it is made with healthier ingredients! I love a good crumbly coffee cake. But when you add fresh blueberries I am in heaven! This was a deliciously moist coffee cake and I loved the bursting blueberries with each bite.

Love your site and the wonderful recipes you share.. I made this one today in the 8” square pan… came out thicker than optimal and a bit low in flavor but ok with butter lol ! I’m going to try again in a slightly larger pan and possibly make the crumble heavier (and less healthy:) with additional butter, sugar and flour added in. Very good base recipe tho !
Just made this but couldn’t find at what point to add the flour mixture. I added it to the butter, sugar and egg mixture but then ended up adding a little milk because it seemed really dry. Haven’t tasted it yet because it just came out of the oven but it smells yummy!!
Hi. I just wanted to tell you I love your site. You always have interesting food ideas and awesome pictures. I also did a search for low carb recipes and you even have some of those for which I’m very grateful. Just wanted to say “thanks” for everything you do!
Substitute the sugars with coconut sugar and the canola oil for Olive or avocado oil and then it wil be healthy.
This looks great! I’m still trying to be careful with my diet so this is perfect. It looks delicious!
