Ingredients
 

For the topping

  • ⅓ cup cold butter
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup chopped pecans

For the Cake Batter

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1½ cups fresh blueberries, rolled into 2 tablespoons flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup [8 oz] sour cream, (you may sub with plain Greek or regular yogurt)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup chopped pecans, (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly grease a 9×13 baking dish.
    Make the pecan topping by cutting the cold butter into the flour, cinnamon, and sugar until crumbly. Stir in the pecan nuts. Set aside. 
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
    Roll the blueberries in 2 tablespoons of flour (from the flour mix above) until coated.
  • In another bowl, beat the eggs with the sour cream just until combined. Pour in the melted butter and the vanilla and mix.
  • Slowly whisk in the flour mixture with the egg mixture. It will be a thick batter. Gently fold in the blueberries and chopped pecans (if using).
  • Spoon the batter onto the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Distribute the pecan topping all over the batter. Bake in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes or until a tester inserted in the middle comes out clean. Oven heating and temperatures vary so adjust accordingly. Mine was perfect at 35 minutes.
  • Cool completely before slicing. Serve on its own or with some sweetened whipped cream or plain pouring cream, if desired. Perfect breakfast cake with coffee or your favorite tea.
