Blueberry Buttermilk Breakfast Cake


Plan to make it this weekend, or today.


It's called a breakfast cake, but trust me, it is delicious any time of the day.  I made this last weekend and it was gobbled up in two days.  Blueberries are on sale, so I think making another one soon is a sure thing.




Buttermilk is a good thing! It makes the cake moist and velvety without being too rich. I have found this great buttermilk at Whole Foods. I like that it comes from grass fed cows.  I believe that grass fed cows are healthier and that means healthier milk for me!
When cooked, the fresh blueberries got plump and juicy and the sprinkled vanilla sugar on top added the perfect sweetness to every bite.


I found the recipe HERE on Alexandra's Kitchen. The only thing I changed in the recipe was I substituted Vanilla Sugar to sprinkle on top before baking.


I love this cake! 
(and you will too)

    1. Cranberries is a great idea. I was thinking maybe cherries would work too.
