Ingredients
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sour cream
2 large eggs
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries
⅓ cup brown sugar
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and diced
Instructions
1. In a small bowl, prepare the crumb topping by mixing brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and cold butter until crumbly. Set aside.
2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla extract. Scrape down the sides as needed.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
6. Alternate adding the flour mixture and sour cream into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
7. Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to overmix.
8. Pour the batter into the prepared dish and smooth the top.
9. Evenly sprinkle the crumb topping over the batter.
10. Bake for 40–45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
11. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Notes
For extra blueberry flavor, you can add a teaspoon of lemon zest to the batter.
Toss blueberries in a little flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the cake.
Let the cake cool for at least 15 minutes to make clean slices and preserve the crumb topping.
