  • Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
  • Yield: 12 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 ½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries (do not thaw if frozen)

For the streusel:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the streusel. Cut in cold butter until coarse crumbs form. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Beat softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then add vanilla extract.
  6. Alternately add the flour mixture and sour cream to the butter mixture, starting and ending with flour. Mix gently until combined.
  7. Fold in blueberries carefully.
  8. Spread half the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle half the streusel on top. Add remaining batter and then the rest of the streusel.
  9. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  10. Cool for 20 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Use frozen blueberries without thawing to avoid batter discoloration.

For extra flavor, add a teaspoon of lemon zest to the batter.

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for two days or refrigerate/freeze for longer storage.
