I always look for simple and decadent recipes and this one for Wild Blueberry Coffee Cake is just the one. My mother used to make this every morning for the guests at our Island Bed and Breakfast. It is an easy recipe to make the night before, it freezes well, and the adaptations are endless.
As much as I love having this treat with coffee, enjoying it with ice cream is just as fantastic. My kids love this cake and always gobble it up in record time. I would by misleading you if I said I didn’t join them in their cake conquests.
For this coffee cake I use a 9″ spring form pan. It makes the cake nice and tall while allowing it to be served easily. If you prefer to make this cake in a sheet cake pan, use a 9 x 13 rectangle and cook for a reduced time of only 40 minutes. Enjoy!
