Sherry’s Blueberry Cream Cheese Crumb Cake

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Grease and line a 9×13-inch pan with parchment paper.
  1. Make the Crumb Topping:
  • In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
  1. Prepare Cream Cheese Layer:
  • Beat cream cheese, sugar, egg, and vanilla until smooth. Set aside.
  1. Prepare Cake Batter:
  • In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In another bowl, beat butter and sugar until fluffy.
  • Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla.
  • Mix in sour cream.
  • Gradually fold in dry ingredients until just combined.
  1. Assemble the Cake:
  • Spread half of the cake batter into the pan.
  • Carefully spread cream cheese mixture over it.
  • Spoon remaining cake batter on top (it can be dolloped and gently spread).
  • Sprinkle blueberries evenly over the top.
  • Finish with crumb topping.
  1. Bake:
  • Bake 45–50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean (some crumbs may stick — that’s okay!).
  • Cool completely before slicing.

💡 Tips

  • Use fresh blueberries if possible; frozen work too, just toss in a little flour to prevent sinking.
  • For extra flavor, add a tsp of lemon zest to the cream cheese layer.
  • Store covered at room temperature for 1–2 days or in the fridge for up to 4 days.
