Steps:
- Make the streusel topping: Combine the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a small bowl. Using your fingers, mix until no lumps of brown sugar remain. Rub in the butter with your fingertips until it reaches a crumbly state. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. Grease a 9-inch square pan with butter or nonstick cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the butter and granulated sugar until creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl and beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla extract and lemon zest.
- Gradually add the flour mixture, alternating with the milk, beating on low speed to combine. Add the berries to the batter and fold gently with a spatula until evenly distributed. Do not over-mix.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until golden brown around the edges and a cake tester comes out clean. Let cool in the pan on a rack for about 20 minutes, then serve right from the pan.
- This cake is best served on the day it is made. Leftovers will keep well for a few days wrapped in foil and stored at room temperature.
- Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cake can be frozen for up to 3 months. After it is completely cooled, double-wrap it securely with aluminum foil or plastic freezer wrap, or place it in heavy-duty freezer bag. Thaw overnight on the countertop before serving.

GRANDMA CATHERINE'S BLUEBERRY PIE
Homemade blueberry pie is a treat and this is a fantastic pie recipe. The filling uses fresh blueberries. It's sweet with a light tartness (thanks to a bit of lemon juice). A store-bought crust could be used, but this recipe is an easy crust to put together. Most crusts have to be refrigerated but this one can be rolled out...

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter a 9x9-inch cake pan.
- Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- Cream sugar, butter, and vanilla together in another bowl. Add egg and beat well.

BLUEBERRY SOUR CREAM COFFEE CAKE
One really delicious and really unhealthy Sunday coffee cake. I have no idea where I got this recipe from but it was about thirty years ago and has been a family favorite since. The bake time is a bit longer if you're using frozen berries.

GRANDMA'S BLUEBERRY BUCKLE RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Number Of Ingredients 13
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine eggs and milk. Cream in sugar and butter. Next add flour, baking powder and salt. Mix well and fold in blueberries. Grease and flour a 9x13 pan and put mixture in pan. Combine the 4 ingredients for the topping, mixing until crumbly. Sprinkle over blueberry mixture and bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Tips:
- Use fresh blueberries. Fresh blueberries will burst with flavor and give your coffee cake a beautiful purple hue. If you don't have fresh blueberries, you can use frozen blueberries, but be sure to thaw them before using.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the coffee cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Spread the streusel evenly over the batter. The streusel is what gives the coffee cake its signature crumbly topping. Be sure to spread it evenly over the batter so that every bite has a little bit of streusel.
- Bake the coffee cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the coffee cake is cooked through.
- Let the coffee cake cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. This will give the coffee cake time to set and make it easier to slice.
Conclusion:
Grandma's Blueberry Streusel Coffee Cake is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast treat. It's perfect for a lazy Sunday morning or a special occasion. With its moist crumb, sweet blueberry filling, and crunchy streusel topping, this coffee cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
