Fresh Blueberry Crumb Cake
4 tbs butter, room temperature
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup milk
2 cups blueberries
For the Topping:
4 tbs butter, room temperature
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Grease and flour a 9-inch square baking pan. Heat oven to 375°.
In a mixing bowl with an electric mixer beat the 4 tbs of butter with 3/4 cup granulated sugar until creamy. Add the egg and vanilla and continue to beat until smooth and well blended.
Combine the 2 cups of flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl.
Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with 1/2 cup of milk and beating until smooth after each addition. Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
Spread the batter in the prepared baking pan.
In a medium bowl, combine the 4 tbs of room temperature butter with the brown sugar, 1/3 cup of flour, and 1/2 tsp of cinnamon. Blend well with a pastry blender, fork, or fingers to form crumbs.
Sprinkle topping crumbs over the batter. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 35 min.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool. Slice it into squares and serve. Serves 8
