Preparation Steps

  1. Preheat the Oven:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round or square baking pan.
  1. Make the Streusel Topping:
  • In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, flour, ground cinnamon, and chopped nuts (if using). Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
  1. Prepare the Cake Batter:
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to crush them.
  1. Assemble the Cake:
  • Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Sprinkle half of the streusel topping over the batter. Add the remaining batter on top, then finish with the rest of the streusel.
  1. Bake:
  • Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips for Customization

  • Berry Variations: Feel free to mix in other berries like raspberries or blackberries for a colorful twist.
  • Zesty Addition: Add lemon or orange zest to the batter for a refreshing citrus flavor.
  • Glaze: Drizzle a simple powdered sugar glaze over the cooled cake for an extra touch of sweetness.
