Blueberry Coffee Cake is the best of both worlds, think about if the original recipe for blueberry muffins and the American coffee cake had a baby with a hint of lemon, this would be it!
Since you use fresh juicy blueberries, you will get a perfectly moist and flavorful lemon blueberry coffee cake! Not to mention my favorite parts of a delicious blueberry cake recipe — the buttery streusel topping.
You can even bump up the flavor even more by either adding some fresh lemon zest from the lemon rind or a tasty yet simple glaze to go over the top of the crunchy streusel topping!
This blueberry coffee cake recipe is great if you need a moist cake recipe for a special occasion where you want to wow them with the best coffee cake recipe.
