Incredible Blueberry Buttermilk Breakfast Cake

My family gobbled this down in about 2.5 seconds.  It truly is INCREDIBLE.  We loved every single thing about this cake and it is perfect for breakfast! Who wouldn’t want cake for breakfast, right?! This cake is buttery, moist and bursting with fresh blueberries and is so easy to make.

How do you make Blueberry Buttermilk Breakfast Cake?

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.  Grease an 8 or 9 inch pan and set aside.  In a medium sized mixing bowl, cream together the butter, lemon zest, and sugar.  Add the egg and vanilla and beat until combined.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt and baking powder.  Toss the blueberries in 1/4 cup flour.
  • Add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture a little at a time alternating with the buttermilk until combined.  Gently fold in the blueberries.
  • Spread the batter into the prepared baking pan.  Sprinkle with coarse sugar.  Bake for 35-40 minutes or until it is cooked through and toothpick is clean.  Let cook for 15 minutes before serving.

Can you use frozen blueberries?

Yes you can!  If you don’t thaw them, you just have to increase the baking time until the cake is done and toothpick inserted is clean. Frozen blueberries may change the color of the batter but the cake itself will still taste delicious!

Can you substitute blueberries with other fruit?

Yes! This is also great with strawberries, apples with cinnamon and sugar, or even rhubarb.

What can I substitute Buttermilk with?

If you do not have buttermilk for this recipe you can use this recipe:
  • For each cup of buttermilk, you can use 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice plus enough milk to measure 1 cup. Stir, then let stand for 5 minutes.
  • You can also use 1 cup of plain yogurt or 1-3/4 teaspoons cream of tartar plus 1 cup milk.

TRUFFLED MUSHROOM PIZZA WITH ARUGULA SALAD

Homemade truffled mushroom pizza that you can throw on the grill in the summertime or prepare in the oven during the winter months! So easy to make and taste like something you’d get at a fancy pizza parlor! Fancy truffled mushroom pizza.. at home. There are only a few things that make me as happy as movie night and homemade pizza on Friday evenings. If you asked me about an ideal Friday night in my mid-twenties, I guarantee that wouldn’t be my answer back then. But now. As I slowly creep up further and further in my thirties, I’ll gladly be in bed before midnight, stay in on the weekends and prefer it, and not only will I not complain about Brussel sprouts, I favor eating them. With all these new preferences, I also have started to like homemade pizza over your no-frills takeout pizza joints. There’s just something about being able to control the toppings, amount of sauce (or skipping it all together), and having the freedom to throw a big arugula salad on top of my truffled mushroom
