Cake for breakfast? Heck yeah!!
This 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 up! The kids and I woke up to the smell of the cinnamon/blueberry combination and paired with my morning coffee, I was one happy mom!
The whole family enjoyed it over the weekend and my hubby even had some during the work week!
Perfect for breakfast, snacks, evening treats, or when having company over, this is our new favorite cake!!
Enjoy!

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!
