Blueberry Streusel Coffee Cake

Submitted by SweetDivaMJ

"Adapted from Taste of Home. This coffee cake smells wonderful as it bakes and tastes even better. I substitute freshly ground whole grain flour for part of the all-purpose. **PLEASE NOTE**. If you substitute store- bought wheat flour for the all-purpose, you do not need to add the additional amount of flour - just use the same amount as all-purpose."

I can't believe no one has made this coffee cake yet on zaar. This is the best Blueberry coffee cake in exsistance. I'm convinced. I will say, that when I was making the batter, it was super thick and I was worried it was a bad recipe because usually coffee cake, cupcakes, cake batter... is pretty runny and I was having a hard time just spreading it in the pan it was so thick, once it started cooking though, I realized this is the best coffee cake EVER! (I used all-purpose flour) I brought it to work and my boss sat down in front of me and ate 3 pieces and then while talkig all business like proceeded to gather the crumbs together and dumped them from his plate into his mouth while muttering, this is wonderful, wonderful! It was everything I could do not to laugh! EVERYONE needs to make this at least once! Thanks for posting!

WOW this turned out fantastic! I'm my own worst critic when it comes to baking but really, what a great recipe thank you! The top of the cake was sweet and crunchy and the inside so soft and full of blueberries:) Had it with vanilla ice cream. This is one recipe I will save and even write down to make sure I don't ever misplace it. 5 stars!
