Time 2h50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

Pinch fine salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine salt

FRESH BLUEBERRY COFFEE CAKE



Fresh Blueberry Coffee Cake image

This recipe is from an old Southern Living Cookbook. I've made it many times and have copied the recipe for several people who loved it. I use a bundt pan, but you could try other pans like 2 loaf pans or a 9x13. Serve for breakfast, a brunch or even an after dinner dessert. Just be careful when placing the blueberry layer. It's pretty heavy so it will sink. Placing it closer to the top of the wet batter works best.
