Ingredients:
For the Cake:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup fresh blueberries
For the Crumb Topping:
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Cake Batter:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round or square cake pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until creamy and smooth.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
Add the cream cheese and continue to beat until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until combined.
2. Add the Blueberries:
Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, being careful not to break them.
3. Prepare the Crumb Topping:
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon.
Add the softened butter (you can use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work it into the dry ingredients) until the mixture forms crumbs.
4. Assemble and Bake:
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
Evenly sprinkle the crumb topping over the cake batter.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. Cool and Serve:
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice, serve, and enjoy the irresistible combination of cream cheese and blueberries!
This Blueberry Cream Cheese Crumb Cake is the perfect treat for breakfast, brunch, or as a sweet snack with a cup of coffee. The balance of creamy, fruity, and buttery flavors will have you coming back for seconds! 😋🍰
