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.

Yummy! You had me at blueberry…and cake.
Thanks for linking up on Recipes I Can’t Wait to Try!
Your cake looks fantastic, Chaya. I agree that this cake could be incredibly versatile and made with all different combinations of fruit and nuts.
There is definitely something forbidden about this blueberry coffee cake. I know I shouldn’t want to try it, but that’s what I’m going to do lol. Thanks for sharing the recipe
Thanks for baking, Chaya! I think everybody really liked it! That’s such a relief, because whenever I choose a recipe for the group I do worry that it won’t be a hit. With cake, you usually can’t go wrong!
You reminded me that I should have posted the recipe on my blog post! Oops, it slipped my mind when I wrote it. It seems like nobody has any trouble getting the recipe though!
Your cake looks delicious, what a beautiful baking dish!
Delicious cake. So perfect in every way.
Looks delicious! I’ll have to go hunt the recipe down, thanks!!
Hooray for delicious gluten free cakes!
Your cake looks delicious! I love blueberries and the crumb topping.
