🥘 Ingredients
Ingredient Notes:
All-purpose flour- The gluten structure and base of this recipe is all purpose flour.
Sugar- Use granulated sugar for added sweetness and to get a more tender crumb. You will also need some granulated sugar to help the streusel taste sweet.
Sour cream- For added richness and a velvety texture, use sour cream.
Fresh blueberries- Use fresh (or frozen) blueberries for bursts of delicious fruity flavor in every slice. If you still have blueberries left, try them in our Small Batch Blueberry Muffins or Cake Mix Blueberry Muffins.

🔪 Instructions for Blueberry Sour Cream Coffee Cake
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Spray a bundt pan and dust with flour, shaking out excess flour, and then set it aside.
Step 2: In a bowl combine your flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside
Step 3: In another bowl combine the streusel ingredients and set aside.
Step 4: In the bowl of a stand mixer or in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Step 5: Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Step 6: Reduce the speed, and add in vanilla and sour cream. The batter will look curdled. This is okay.
Step 7: Slowly add in the flour, a little at a time.
Step 8: Gently fold in the blueberries.
Step 9: Scoop out ⅓ of the batter and spread it in a bundt pan.
Step 10: Top with ½ of the streusel mix. Spread it around as evenly as you can.
Step 11: Top with another ⅓ of batter and repeat with streusel and the remaining batter.
Step 12: Bake 75min-85min until golden in color and the toothpick comes out mostly clean. The streusel can alter the toothpick test results so if the cake looks done and springs back when touched, it's likely finished.
Step 13: Let cool in the pan for 15 minutes before flipping onto a wired rack.
Dust with powdered sugar, serve, and enjoy.
🍴 Recipe Tips
- Choosing Ingredients: Avoid using margarine or butter spread for the streusel topping, as it can result in a slightly soggy texture within the cake.
- Adding Blueberries: Feel free to add extra blueberries to the recipe if desired. Add them when layering the streusel to ensure even distribution throughout the cake, maximizing the blueberry flavor in every bite.

Blueberry Sour Cream Coffee Cake
Ingredients
Streusel
- ¾ cup granulated sugar ($0.27)
- ¾ cup all purpose flour ($0.10)
- 1 Tablespoon water ($0.00)
- 1 ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon ($0.12)
- ¼ cup butter, softened ($0.50)
- ¼ cup oats ($0.06)
Coffee Cake
- 2 ⅓ cup all purpose flour ($0.30)
- ½ teaspoon baking soda ($0.01)
- 1 teaspoon salt ($0.01)
- 1 ½ cup granulated sugar ($0.54)
- 1 cup butter, room temperature ($1.98)
- 3 large eggs ($0.45)
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract ($0.05)
- 1 cup sour cream ($1.00)
- 1 cup fresh blueberries ($0.99)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300F degrees. Spray a bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray and dust with flour. Shake to coat sides well and tap to release excess flour from the pan. Set aside.
- In a small bowl combine the streusel ingredients and set aside.
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the sugar and butter until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs to the butter mixture one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Reduce the speed and add in the vanilla extract and the sour cream. The batter will look a little curdled, but this is okay.
- Slowly add in the flour mixture, a little at a time to make sure that it's smooth and well incorporated.
- Gently fold the blueberries into the batter and then scoop out ½ of the batter and place it in the bottom of the prepared bundt pan. Sprinkle half of the streusel mixture over the batter as evenly as you can.
- Scoop another ½ of the cake batter and spread it over the top of the streusel layer.
- Bake for 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 20 minutes, or until the cake is a golden color and a toothpick can come out clean. Please note that depending on how wet the streusel is the cake tester might come out looking wet despite the cake being fully cooked. If needed, press slightly on the top of the cake to get a feel for how wet it is. If there's a little spring back when pressed, the cake should be cooked through.
- Remove the cake from the oven and let it rest in the pan for 15 minutes before flipping it over to cool on a wire baking rack without the pan until cooled. Dust with powdered sugar if desired, serve and enjoy.
