    It's hard not to love fresh berries in the summer.

    They're delicious by the handful or baked into all sorts of treats - like Blueberry Coffee Cake.

    This blueberry coffee cake is a sweet blueberry vanilla cake topped with a generous layer of crumb topping. I sprinkle on a little powdered sugar, but you could drizzle a simple glaze over the top if you prefer.

    One note - the blueberries sink to the bottom of this coffee cake and form a nice sweet layer along the bottom, which I like. If you want the keep the berries from sinking, toss them with a tablespoon or so of flour before you fold the blueberries into the batter.
