How to make Blueberry Crumble Coffee Cake
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Prepare a 6-inch cake pan by spraying it with cooking spray.
Cut a piece of parchment paper into a 6-inch circle. Place it in the bottom of the cake pan and spray again with cooking spray. Set aside.
For the Streusel Crumble
Combine the sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and butter in a small mixing bowl with a fork until everything is combined and it forms a crumbly mixture.
For the easy Blueberry Coffee Cake
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, butter, milk, egg, baking powder, and salt and stir together until smooth and combined.
Gently fold in the blueberries until just barely incorporated.
Spread the coffee cake batter into the prepared cake pan.
Sprinkle the streusel crumble topping evenly over the batter.
Place the cake pan on a baking sheet and bake for about 50 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.
Allow the cake to cool for 20 minutes.
Loosen the edges of the cake from the pan with a knife.
For the Glaze
Combine the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla in a small bowl until mixed well. Add more milk if it is too thick to drizzle.
Drizzle the glaze over the coffee cake.
Cut the cake into four equal slices and serve.

I love this recipe - it comes out great every time for me. I make it in a pie pan because I don't happen to have a 6" round. Great to have a recipe like this for just a few people that also comes together quickly. Big favorite at our house. I usually use frozen blueberries and add 1/4c toasted, finely chopped nuts to the streusel.

Highest marks from my daughter! Love these small batch recipes. I realized I didn’t have the recommended size pan after mixing batter so I divided between 2 large muffin tins. They baked for 30 min. Turned out perfect. My daughter said they were better that the local bakery. Thanks for a great recipe.

Hi Alycia, I'm so glad your daughter loved this recipe. I love the idea of using the muffin tins and I will definitely be trying that myself, thanks :)

Turned out perfect, it’s delicious. Followed recipe exactly but only baked for 43 mins. and was done. Also tossed my blueberries in some flour so they didn’t sink to the bottom.

I replaced the blueberries with bananas and it turned out spectacular! Didn't have to change the recipe much, but I did keep an eye on it.
