Blueberry Buckle

After a fun blueberry picking trip I had lots of blueberries to use!

This was actually how I finished up the rest of my blueberries...by making Blueberry Buckle. Basically a coffee cake but with blueberries! I think I may have in the past eaten it as a dessert, but it makes a great breakfast too! :) This is a favorite family recipe! I remember making this for my grandpa after going blueberry picking one time. fun times.
