Ingredients

Units Scale

Streusel Topping

  • 4 tbsp packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, cold, cut into small (1/2in chunks)

For the cake

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 3/4 cup almond milk
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375'F. Grease and lightly flour a 8x11.5 in baking dish.
  2. Make the streusel: Combine the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon together in a medium bowl. Add the chunks of butter, and "cut" them in using a knife or a fork. [You add them and then cut them in the mixture with a fork by pressing down repeatedly until it's a chunky mixture. You can slice with a butter knife and do the same process repeatedly to make a crumbly topping].
  3. Make the cake: In a medium bowl, mix together the flour and baking powder and set aside.
  4. In another bowl, mix together the sugar and butter until creamy, about 2 minutes.
  5. Add the egg and beat until mixed together. Add the vanilla extract and mix together.
  6. Add half the milk and half the flour and mix together on low speed.
  7. Add the other half of the milk and flour and mix together on low speed, scraping the sides of the bowl with a spatula. Try to not overly mix the batter.
  8. Add the berries to the mixture and fold gently with a rubber spatula until evenly mixed.
  9. Transfer to the prepared pan, and sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter.
  10. Bake for 60-75 minutes in oven until golden brown around the edges and a toothpick comes out of the center clean. Let cool for about 20 minutes then cut into 12 pieces and serve.
