Rhonda's Berry & Bloom Farm Blueberry Coffee Cake
Updated: Feb 24
I have taken this to every potluck, family gathering and teenage event…and the pan always returns empty. I think that’s a good sign!
Ingredients
2 c flour
1 c sugar
1/2 butter, softened
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
1/2 c milk
1 can/jar blueberry pie filling
2 c powdered sugar
2-4 tsp milk
1 tsp almond extract
Mix the first five ingredients together until crumbly, reserve half a cup of crumbs to sprinkle to the top later. Beat eggs and milk and add to the remaining crumbs. Mix well. Spread batter into greased 9 x 13 pan. Spoon pie filling sporadically on top of batter and sprinkled with reserved crumbs. Bake at 350 for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown. Cut bars first, and then mix powdered sugar, milk, and almond extract together. For a bakery touch drizzle powdered sugar diagonally, then add reserved crumbs.
Baker's tip (that’s me) I almost always double this recipe and put it in a sheet pan and bake it at 325 for an hour or until golden brown. To please a crowd mix it up and make one half blueberry and the other half peach, cherry, or apple! You name it, whatever fits your fancy! It’s the most requested recipe I have and it’s sure to please. Tag us in any of your baking adventures, it never gets old hearing from you!
Thought I’d try this recipe as it was slightly different than mine. A few comments that may help others. There is some confusion in the directions regarding the reserved crumb. It does need to go on the cake PRIOR to baking. I don’t know how/why one would put the powdered sugar glaze UNDER the unbaked crumb. Also the amounts for the glaze is way to much and honestly not even needed, the cake is way sweet if using canned pie filling. Also the bake time did not cock thoroughly nor make the crumble brown. I increased bake time to 35 minutes. I
would add more butter to the reserved crumb to make it a bit crunchier. Otherwise, tastes good just…
