👩‍🍳 How to Make Blueberry Crumb Cake

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8x8-inch baking pan or similar-sized dish.

Step 2: Make the Crumb Topping

In a bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in melted butter until crumbly. Set aside.

Step 3: Cream Butter and Sugar

In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy (2–3 minutes). Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each. Stir in vanilla and sour cream.

Step 4: Mix Dry Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually mix into the wet ingredients just until combined.

Step 5: Add Blueberries

Gently fold in the blueberries using a spatula. Spread the batter evenly into your prepared pan.

Step 6: Add Crumb Topping

Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the batter.

Step 7: Bake

Bake for 35–45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes before slicing.
