Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Light brown sugar (packed)
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cut into cubes)
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 0.75 cup Whole milk
• 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups Fresh blueberries
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch square baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Cut the cold unsalted butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Scoop out 3/4 cup of the crumb mixture and set it aside in a small bowl (this will be used for the topping). To this reserved mixture, add the ground cinnamon and light brown sugar. Mix well and set aside.

Step 5

To the remaining crumb mixture, add the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract, stirring until the batter is smooth and well combined.

Step 6

Gently fold the fresh blueberries into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

Sprinkle the reserved crumb topping mixture evenly over the batter.

Step 9

Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.

Step 10

Remove the crumbcake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

If desired, lightly dust the top with powdered sugar before serving.
