Blueberry Buckle
on Jul 12, 2016, Updated Oct 21, 2020
This Blueberry Buckle recipe was one of those recipes that you will find perfect for breakfast, snack, or dessert.. Plump blueberries meet up with a coffee muffin type cake then topped with a cinnamon and butter streusel.
Blueberry Buckle
Blueberry muffins happen to be my families’ favorite dessert. I am ashamed to admit that we LOVE Jiffy Mix Blueberry Muffins. We quite often will whip up a couple batches for breakfast. More often than not, we make them for evening snack.

The kiddos will literally fight over who gets to enjoy the last one. Sometimes we even have to split one just to keep them all happy, ha ha.
I have to say, my family is not huge fans of other blueberry desserts. They like their blueberries baked in. They all love our Blueberry Pancake Bites so I usually make those when I have purchased blueberries.
This past week, I scored $1 each Blueberry pints at my local grocery store. I instantly thought of making this Blueberry Buckle Recipe.
I have made this recipe over and over again and it has always been a hit with my hubby and all of my kiddos. I personally like it with my morning or even my evening coffee. Since the consistency is that of a cake muffin, it is perfect for dipping in coffee.
All the blueberries bake perfectly with the batter and some even burst. The buttery batter and the cinnamon streusel really pop in this yummy cake.
You will need some fresh or frozen blueberries, butter, egg, as well as a few items found in your spice cabinet and pantry. I like that this recipe doesn’t take much time to have ready for the oven. The house smells wonderful when baking so everyone is always ready for it to be out of the oven and ready to devour.

Hi! I just made this yesterday only to get to the end and realize I never added the vanilla. Your recipe didn’t specify where to add it…..I’m assuming with the egg, sugar and butter mix? Just wanted you to know so you could update it if you want. Thanks!
I can’t wait to try this – pinned and tweeted. Thanks for sharing at #HomeMattersParty
