This Blueberry Brunch Cake is moist, not overly sweet, bursting with blueberries, and the cinnamon topping is amazing!!
Last weekend, my hubby woke up early on Saturday and decided to make the family a tasty new treat! Since we always have blueberries on hand, he decided to make this cake to use some of them up!
When my hubby and I first married, we quickly realized he was a huge breakfast fan and I was not! He would wake up in the morning and immediately look through the refrigerator and pantry for something yummy to make!
Me being the complete opposite, I would wake up, grab my coffee, and move on with my day not needing or wanting breakfast. I am more of a lunch/dinner fan!
Over the years, we met in the middle and I began to like the occasional breakfast, especially if he prepared this blueberry cake.
Once we had kids, he converted them into huge breakfast lovers and now, our weekends almost always have some sort of tasty dish!

When my hubby made this the other day, the kids and I woke up to the smell of the cinnamon/blueberry. As I made my way into the kitchen, I saw this cake sitting there fresh from the oven and let me tell you, my mouth was watering just seeing/smelling it! Paired with my cup of coffee, it was an amazing way to start the day!
The whole family enjoyed it over the weekend and my hubby even enjoyed the leftovers during the work week!
Perfect for breakfast, snacks, evening treats, or when having company over, this is definitely our new favorite cake!!

If using frozen blueberries do you have to defrost them first?
Kristin
Nope, by the time you are ready to use them, they will be thawed enough. Just take them out when you are starting the recipe!

Would you have to double this to make a 9×13 cake?
Kristin
Yep, simply double and it will fit perfectly in a 9×13! Enjoy!
