Blueberry Buckle

A Buckle is a sweet dessert that is made from a cake batter traditionally topped with berries, which is topped with a streusel type topping. The batter rises up as it bakes and the berries and streusel topping sink at uneven intervals, forming a buckled affect in the cake. Originally, buckle was made as a single layer cake topped with blueberries. However, over the years a variety of berries, fruits and toppings have been added to make different versions of this cake dessert. Some recipes have the berries folded into the batter and some spread the berries on top. It is also often made with blueberries and another fruit combined into the cake and topped with the streusel coating.

Ingredients: Blueberry Buckle with Fresh Berries

  • 1/2 c. butter, softened (do not melt)
  • 1 c. sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 1/2 c. flour
  • 3 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 2/3 c. milk
  • 4 cups blueberries (2 pints)

Topping:

  • 1 c. sugar
  • 2/3 c. flour
  • 2 tsp. cinnamon
  • pinch of salt
  • 3/4 c. butter, cold
  • Butter the bottom of a 9" x 13" cake pan. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

  • In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla to the butter and sugar mixture and then beat until mixed in evenly.
  • In a small bowl mix the flour, baking powder and salt together.

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the batter, alternating with the milk. Mix until mixture is all blended.

  • Pour the batter, scraping sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula, into the buttered cake pan. Spread batter out evenly to cover bottom of the pan.

  • Spread the blueberries evenly over the batter.


  • Mix the topping by combining the sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl and stir with a fork. Cut the cold butter into diced pieces and add to the other ingredients. Use a fork to work the butter into the other ingredients until all the ingredients are a crumbly texture.

  • Sprinkle the topping evenly over the berries. Bake uncovered for 40 minutes at 350°F.

  • The blueberries should be bubbling and the topping should be a golden brown when done.
