Blueberry Crumb Cake

Last weekend I was trying to find a way to use about 2 cups that I had left over from a large tray of blueberries. I had made several batches of blueberry muffins and wanted something different. I found lots of recipes for breakfast cakes, but almost of them called for buttermilk, which I didn’t have.  Then I found a recipe on the Betty Crocker website and it looked great! It was just what I was looking for, a nice dense cake that I could enjoy with my coffee. Of course, I did make a few changes because I just can’t help myself! But it did turn out great. Enjoy !

This was a fantastic way to use the remaining blueberries that we had. Everyone in the family enjoyed it, especially the kids. I think they enjoyed the crumble topping the most. I only wish that it lasted longer!
