You’re not in the mood for a big baking session but still want something delicious on the table quickly? Well… how about a simple coffee cake? There is no coffee involved – except you serve something along with the cake – but loads of blueberries and a good amount of streusels. So grab your plate and get a slice of this delicious Blueberry Streusel Coffee Cake ;)
Blueberries are great for baking. There is so much you can do with those blue berries – have you ever noticed that? Just the other day I made these super delicious Potato Croissants with Blueberries and Streusel Topping – so good! OK, the croissants would have been nice even without the blueberry filling, but the blueberries definitely made them even better ;) I have to admit it – I am a huge fan of blueberries. I assume you picked that up by now…
Fortunately, you can get blueberries all year round. Not always fresh though, but definitely frozen. Since blueberries end up in dough or compote most of the time, I actually don’t care about using frozen berries. They are a bit mushy when you defrost them but that is not a problem at all. You will not notice when the cake or whatever comes out of the oven ;) Blueberries are not blueberries though. If I want very blue blueberries, I use the small (frozen) wild berries – they have much more color than the big ones you normally find fresh in stores here. Conveniently, you can also use the frozen berries straight from the freezer and don’t even have to let them thaw in most cases.
If you want to treat yourself with even more blueberry bakes, you should definitely check out these recipes here as well. Blueberries are definitely the stars in these bakes and make them very special sweet treats!
INGREDIENTS / ZUTATEN
3/4 cup (150g) sugar
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
7 oz. (200g) cold butter
3 tbsp. blanched almonds, chopped
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
3/4 cup (180ml) milk
2 medium eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract
9 oz. (250g) fresh blueberries
150g Zucker
1 1/2 TL Backpulver
200g kalte Butter
3 EL blanchierte Mandeln, gehackt
1/2 TL Zimt
180ml Milch
2 Eier (M)
1 TL Vanille Extrakt
250g frische Blaubeeren
DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG
2. Mix the flour with sugar, and baking powder in a large bowl until well combined. Add the cold butter in small pieces and mix. Rub everything between your fingers until you get nice crumbs. Transfer about 3.5 oz. (100g) of the crumbs to a small bowl, add the chopped almonds and ground cinnamon, and mix to combine – this will be your crumb topping. Set aside.
3. Mix the milk with the eggs, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until well combined. Pour into the large bowl with the crumbs and mix until just combined – the batter will look quite wet. Dust the blueberries with flours until they are covered completely, add to the bowl with the batter and fold in. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth out the top. Sprinkle with the topping and bake for 55-65 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Take out of the oven and let cool down for a while in the pan, then remove and let cool down completely on a wire rack.
2. Das Mehl mit Zucker und Backpulver in einer großen Schüssel vermischen. Die kalte Butter in kleinen Stücken zugeben, vermischen und mit den Fingern zu Streuseln verreiben. Etwa 100g der Streusel in eine kleine Schüssel geben und mit den gehackten Mandeln und dem Zimt vermischen – das wird das Streusel Topping. Zur Seite stellen.
3. Die Milch mit Eiern und Vanille Extrakt verquirlen und dann zur großen Schüssel dazugeben – alles nur kurz verrühren. Der Teig wird recht flüssig wirken, aber das ist OK. Die Blaubeeren mit etwas Mehl bestäuben – sie sollten rundum mit Mehl bedeckt sein. Die Blaubeeren zum Teig dazugeben und vorsichtig unterheben, dann in die vorbereitete Form füllen und glatt streichen. Das Streusel Topping darauf verteilen und dann für 55-65 Minuten backen. Mit einem Holzspieß testen, ob noch Teig kleben bleibt und erst herausholen, wenn dieser sauber herauskommt. Den Kuchen aus dem Ofen holen und in der Form einige Zeit abkühlen lassen, dann herauslösen und auf einem Kuchengitter komplett auskühlen lassen.
