Blueberry Buckle Recipe

Thick, luxurious, packed with juicy blueberries, a streusel topping, delicious to the last bite, and pairs perfectly with your morning cup of coffee. What more could you want from a simple blueberry buckle cake recipe?

Can I use Frozen Blueberries in this buckle recipe?

Yes, you absolutely can and the best part is that you don’t even have to thaw the berries. Just toss them in just like you would your fresh blueberries. Of course, frozen blueberries do tend to bleed a little easier than fresh blueberries, so gently fold them into your recipe

What other Berries can I use in place of blueberries in a blueberry buckle recipe?

  • raspberries
  • blackberries
  • strawberries
  • a mixture for a “summer berry buckle”
  • goji berries
  • cherries (technically not a berry, but it would be delicious)
  • cranberries
  • boysenberries

  • To the cream mixture, alternate adding some of the flour mixture and the milk and stir until it is all mixed in
  • Fold in the berries
  • Spoon the batter into a greased 9×9 inches baking pan
