Blueberry Coffee Cake — CEiMB
This week, in Craving Ellie in My Belly (CEiMB), the lovely Bri of Yoshimi vs. Motherhood selected a yummy cake, Blueberry Coffee Cake. I am particularly excited about it because I made it gluten-free for my husband and I think this is the best GF cake, I have made.
I watched the video of Ellie making this cake and even though this is an easy cake to make, it helped to watch it. It was clear in my mind, what was going to happen and what needed to be done. I did not have to check the recipe, often because I kept picturing Ellie preparing the batter. If you have ever watched one of her videos, you would probably smile, as I did, watching how she measured ingredients, certainly not accurately, as good as her eye must be, for these thing.
My cake rose beautifully and was moist and tender. The sour cream, most likely, deserves the credit. My husband had a Cheshire Cat smile on his face, after he took the first bite. He wants this cake again. I would like to try another fruit, next time. I see this as a cake with many possibilities. I recommend, you give it a try.
Check at CEiMB for a list of the other foodies that baked this cake. Bri will have the recipe on her blog and it is the book, So Easy by Ellie Krieger.
