🍰 Blueberry Breakfast Cake

πŸ§‘β€πŸ³ Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven:
    • Set oven to 350Β°F / 175Β°C. Grease and flour an 8×8-inch or 9×9-inch baking pan.
  2. Prepare the Batter:

    • Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

🌟 Tips & Variations

  • For a crunchy top: Sprinkle coarse sugar on top before baking.
  • For extra flavor: Add a pinch of cinnamon to the batter.
  • Serve warm: This cake is amazing slightly warm with a pat of butter.

Would you like me to include a streusel topping version (like a true blueberry coffee cake) for a bakery-style crunch on top?
