Love blueberries? This homemade coffee cake recipe is bursting with blueberry flavor.
If you do use frozen blueberries do not thaw the berries. Place them on a paper towel to absorb the frost if there is any.
Mix them with 1 tablespoon of flour very gently and fold into the batter.
The blueberries will not bleed and not end up on the bottom of the pan.
