It has been a minute since I’ve made a coffee cake. We just haven’t been in brunch mode lately. But, you know I hate wasting food, and when on a Sunday morning I opened the fridge to some blueberries on the brink, I knew I had to act.
This recipe comes out of my consistently amazing church cookbook, attributed to Bernice Briesemesiter.
