Blueberry Buckle For The Win!

So on Sunday I made a blueberry buckle, which is like a one layer cake with a cinnamon sugar topping. It was as good as it sounds! I had just taken it out of the oven when my parents dropped off Kangaroo Girl from Youth Group. Great timing! We demolished half of the pan, it was SO GOOD.



The recipe is from Katie at Made To Be A Momma.com Following is the recipe, directly from her website:

For the Cake:
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup shortening
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
2 cups flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups blueberries

Topping:
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup flour
2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 cup butter, softened

Instructions:
1.Combine the sugar, shortening, egg, milk, flour, baking powder and salt.
2.Fold in the blueberries.
3.Pour the mixture in a greased 9 x 13 inch pan.
4. Combine the topping ingredients of sugar, flour, cinnamon and butter until crumbly.
5. Sprinkle the topping mixture on top of the cake.
6. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes.

Notes:
*If you use frozen berries your cake mixture will get quite cold and form into a large "ball" when transferring to a pan. Just use a spatula or your hand to push the cake mixture to fill the pan.
*We also found that the cake mixture fits into an 8 in. x 11 in. pan just fine as well. Makes the cake pieces thicker. Just adjust baking time if needed.
This one is going in my recipe box. The cinnamon sugar topping was so good! We ate it with ice cream.

Have a great day readers and thanks for reading!
XOXO,
Melissa
