Blueberry Banana Buckle Coffee Cake

This coffee cake is a light, sweet cake intended to be eaten with coffee, but I prefer tea! I am the furthest thing from a coffee lover, but love a good coffee cake! This is the perfect recipe for a fun brunch or just to have a sweet breakfast or snack to munch on for a quick and easy bite. This blueberry buckle recipe has a ripple of cinnamon sugar throughout the middle and a beautiful crunchy streusel topping. It is quite a sweet cake, so I love to pair it with a more bitter tea!

It's fast and easy to make and you likely have the majority of these ingredients in your home already. Whoever said you can't have cake for breakfast has clearly never had a delicious coffee cake!

Blueberry Banana Buckle Coffee CakeHOW TO MAKE BLUEBERRY BANANA BUCKLE COFFEE CAKE

It's really just three easy steps! Combine all of your coffee cake recipe ingredients, except the blueberries into one large bowl. Mix until it is well combined. Make your cinnamon sugar swirl by combining coconut sugar, or whatever granulated sugar you have on hand and some cinnamon. Next, make your streusel by combining all dry ingredients and cutting in the butter with your fingers until you form a nice crumble.

Now let's assemble! Grease and flour a cake pan and pour half of the cake batter into the pan. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar all over the first layer of cake batter and then pour the remaining cake batter over it. Sprinkle the streusel topping over the entire top of the cake making sure to cover the whole cake! Bake it off and that's it! It is so so easy!

CAN YOU MAKE BLUEBERRY BANANA BUCKLE COFFEE CAKE IN ADVANCE?

You sure can! I even think it is better the second day! I love to bake off this sweet breakfast cake the night before serving. Bake it off, cool to room temp. Once completely cooled, wrap tightly in plastic wrap or beeswax wrap and place on your kitchen counter. You can also slice it into pieces and place the pieces in a air tight container and leave on your fridge for one day-overnight. Refrigerate after 24 hours, it's so good cold!
