Blueberry Coffee Cake

June 2026 - Dessert

Blueberry Coffee Cake

This blueberry coffee cake is a tender, moist cake with a soft, buttery crumb layer on top and bursts of juicy blueberries in each bite. The blueberries bring a fresh, slightly tart brightness that balances the cake throughout. Lightly sweet and comforting, this is the kind of bake that works just as well for a relaxed breakfast as it does for an afternoon coffee break.

Serves: 16 squares 
Time to Make: 1 hour 

Directions

  1. Prepare the crumble topping first. Melt the butter then add the flours and brown sugar together with the melted butter in a small bowl, mix thoroughly. Then place it in the fridge while you prepare the cake base.
  2. Add the white sugar and lemon zest together into a large mixing bowl and rub together to intensify the lemon flavour. Then add the rest of the dry ingredients to the sugar/lemon zest (gluten-free flours, brown sugar, xanthan gum, baking powder, salt).
  3. Prepare the wet ingredients. Add the oat milk and the apple cider vinegar together in a small bowl and set aside for a few minutes. Melt the butter and set aside to slightly cool.
  4. After the butter has cooled slightly, add the butter to the milk and apple cider vinegar along with the yogurt and vanilla. Whisk together.
  5. Mix the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients.
  6. Toss the blueberries in a separate bowl with corn starch or gluten-free flour.
  7. Line a 9×9 square baking pan with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
  8. Add the cake batter to the lined baking pan. Evenly distribute the batter with a spatula. Then add the blueberries, lightly pressing them into the top with your hands.
  9. Remove the crumble topping from the fridge and scatter it evenly on top of the blueberries.
  10. Place in the oven for 35-40 minutes. Let it cool for at least 30 minutes before removing from the pan (the longer the better). Cut into squares and enjoy.
  11. Store any leftovers in an airtight container on the counter.
