Blueberry Buckle

Blueberry Buckle aka yummy Blueberry-cake!

I had never heard of the term "buckle" associated with cake until I came across this recipe. I have stayed true to the original recipe, with a few minor alterations. The original recipe was taken from delish.com (credit to). Here is my version. 

Prep time: 15 mins

Cook time: 45 minutes

Leave to cool: 20 minutes 

What you will need:

For the crumble topping:

* 1/2cup All purpose flour

* 1/4cup Granulated sugar

* 1/4cup Brown sugar

* 4-5tbsp Melted butter

* 1tsp Ground cinnamon 

* Salt to taste 

For the cake:

*2cups All purpose flour 

*2tsp Baking powder 

* salt to taste (1/2tsp)

* 1/3cup Semi-melted butter (softer than room temperature)

* 1/2cup Granulated sugar

* 1/4cup Packed brown sugar

* 1 Egg

* 2tsp Vanilla extract 

* 1cup Buttermilk

* 2cups Fresh washed blueberries 

* Parchment paper

* 8inch Square baking pan

Putting it together:

1. Grease an 8inch square baking pan with cooking spray, and then line with parchment paper. Pre-heat oven to 375degrees. 

2. In a bowl combine all the ingredients for the crumble, and stir until no ingredients remain dry. Set aside until the cake mixture has been combined. 

3. In a bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and granulated sugar. Set aside. 

4. In a separate bowl combine brown sugar, egg, vanilla extract and butter, and whisk together. 

5. Combine the flour mix (#3) and the buttermilk (1 cup) a little at a time into the bowl with the sugar/egg mixture (#4). Use electric beater or whisk. Mix until all ingredients have been combined into one bowl. Caution - do not overbeat the cake mixture. 

6. Gently fold in the 2 cups of blueberries into the cake mix. 

7. Pour cake mixture into lined baking dish. 

8. Spread the crumble mix (#2) evenly over the cake mixture in baking dish. Do not mix.
