Blueberry Buckle- A Family Tradition Recipe!

April 20, 2017

I never properly blogged our family tradition recipe…Blueberry Buckle!
After making it for Easter morning, I snapped some photos to share.
You need this recipe in your life.
It’s incredible…and if you want you can use it as a base for a coffee cake recipe.
We went with 2 cups of blueberries but you could do one cup and be good.
My Mom passed this recipe on to me when I got married.
She would make this for Easter and Christmas Morning… amazing!
If you like something fruity and sweet with a little crunch… this is for you!
This past time I roughly doubled the toppings because we wanted extra sweet crunch on top.
But if you want to make it how we always make it, try the recipe below!


INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup butter or margarine
3/4 cup sugar
1 Egg
2 cup sifted all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup milk
2 cups fresh blueberries, washed
CRUMB TOPPING:
1/2 cup soft butter
1 cup sugar
2/3 cup flour
1 tsp cinnamon
DIRECTIONS:
Cream butter; add sugar and beat until lights.
Add egg and beat well.
Add sifted dry ingredients alternately with milk, beating until smooth.
**Note..don’t pack in flour, or else you’ll need to add more milk to balance that out.**
Fold in berries.
Pour into greased pan (my mom always uses a 9×11″)
Sprinkle with Crumb Topping.
Bake 375 degrees for 35 minutes. 6-9 Servings

We typically make the buckle the night before…
so it’s ready to dive into the next morning!
The smell of it takes me home!
It’s been a staple in our house all the years and I hope you try it out.
I’m sure your loved ones will be begging for it every year!
Not that you have to wait for a Holiday… It would be great for a brunch recipe!

Hope you are having a wonderful week so far. Sorry it’s been kind of quiet around here lately.
I’m 10 weeks and hanging in there through this rough patch of all day sickness!
Baby is the size of a strawberry… I should have done a strawberry recipe. ;)
