Blueberry Coffee Cake!

Tis the season for blueberries! And there's nothing like fresh blueberries where I live. They're super cheap now, too. I've been buying them by the tons and freezing them. (I've been doing the same thing with corn, too)
Anyhew, I found a recipe in one of my old Cooking Lights for a blueberry coffee cake and decided to make it since I had so many blueberries. Well, my hubby and mother went completely wild for it.
It's easy to make and so good in the morning with a cup of coffee. :)
Here it is:
Blueberry Coffee Cake
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (about 6 3/4 ounces)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup granulated sugar
6 tablespoons butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 large egg white
1 1/3 cups low-fat buttermilk
Cooking spray
2 cups fresh blueberries
1 tablespoon sugar
Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour, baking powder, soda, and salt, stirring with a whisk.
3. Place granulated sugar and butter in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until well blended (about 2 minutes). Add vanilla, egg, and egg white; beat well. Add flour mixture and buttermilk alternately to sugar mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture; mix after each addition.
4. Spoon half of the batter into a 9-inch round baking pan coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle evenly with 1 cup blueberries. Spoon remaining batter over the blueberries; sprinkle evenly with remaining 1 cup blueberries. Sprinkle the top evenly with 1 tablespoon sugar. Bake at 350° for 50 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes on a wire rack; remove from pan. Cool completely on wire rack.
Enjoy!

Yummy! We have lots of blueberries in Florida and while I'm not a very healthy person, my kiddos eat those things up!
Sounds delicious, but right now I'm staying away from all desserts except low-fat frozen yogurt.
Ooh, thanks for this. Cherries and blueberries are big here right now. I bought some of both yesterday thinking a crumble dish, but maybe I'll try this instead.
That sounds incredibly good. If I cooked, I would so make it.

Mmmmm. That sounds delish! I may make that for this weekend. Thank you for sharing!
Mmmmmm that sounds sooooo good! My mom always made the BEST coffee cake when we were kids.
Yummo! We LOVE blueberries here. I'll try that recipe but add a crumb topping.
