Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups fresh blueberries
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 2 tablespoons milk (for glaze)
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract (for glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, sour cream, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; the batter will be thick.
Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, being cautious not to overmix to avoid smushing the berries.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the coffee cake to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before glazing.
To make the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
Drizzle the vanilla glaze over the cooled coffee cake. Allow the glaze to set for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
