Delicious with a lovely light texture! I really love the idea of tossing the blueberries with the cinnamon, very nice touch. I drizzled this with a light lemon glaze which went perflectly with it. Very yummy! Thanks for posting. -
This was great. I used applesauce instead of oil and egg beaters instead of eggs. Turned out wonderful, my only complaint was the blueberries sunk to the bottom, but that was probably due to using the apple sauce/egg beaters combo. I should have used a little more flour to thicken the batter. DH and DD loved it. Thanks for sharing. -
This is a very good coffee cake. The blueberries are the big hit in this recipe, of course, and the cinnamon is a nice touch. The only thing is that my cake didn't rise as high as I'm used to and I'm not sure why. It still tasted great, though. Thanks for sharing, Auntie Mags. -

I have been cooking ever since I can remember. I'm always experimenting with new recipes and new ingredients. Life is too short to make the same thing twice!
I'm an author living in Ontario, Canada with my husband and two picky kids. We will be moving to Savannah, Georgia in the next year so I am honing my Southern cooking skills (although I may NEVER get my husband to like collard greens). I love all the great recipes and info on 'Zaar, and look forward to being more active here.
