One thing that I want to mention and admit is that I don’t make this with the sole purpose of it being a breakfast food. After dinner, I like to have a nice cup of coffee to wind down and a tasty dessert. This is the perfect after dinner dessert. Don’t limit yourself! This coffee cake should be eaten whenever you desire! I love foods that you ca share and create lasting memories with! It’s funny how much food is a part of our lives!
Check out what our friends from Panini Girl have to say about this:
“You’ve got a layer of cinnamon sugar, another of blueberries and it’s all topped with buttery crumbs laced with pecans. I’m putting the coffee on so come on over!”
Try this blueberry buckle coffee cake and make it a tradition in your household!

Instructions
Crumb Topping
Whisk flour, sugar, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir in nuts. Add butter; using your fingertips, work butter into dry ingredients until large, moist crumbs begin to form. Set topping aside. DO AHEAD: Can be made 5 days ahead. Cover and chill.
Cake
Preheat oven to 350°. Coat pan with nonstick spray. Line bottom with parchment paper; set aside. Whisk flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat 3/4 cup sugar and butter in a medium bowl until light and fluffy, 3–4 minutes. Beat in vanilla. Add eggs one at a time, beating to blend between additions and occasionally scraping down sides of bowl, until mixture is pale and fluffy, 3–4 minutes longer.
With mixer on low speed, add dry ingredients to bowl in 3 additions, alternating with buttermilk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with dry ingredients. Pour half of batter into prepared pan and smooth top. Whisk remaining 3 Tbsp. sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl; sprinkle evenly over batter in pan. Spoon remaining batter over; smooth top.
Toss blueberries with panko in a small bowl; scatter evenly over batter. Sprinkle crumb topping over blueberries.
Bake cake until top is golden brown and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 55–65 minutes. Let cool completely in pan.
