✅ Ingredients

For the Cake:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries (if frozen, don’t thaw)

For the Streusel Topping:

• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes

🧁 Instructions

1. Preheat Oven
   Preheat to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8×8-inch (20×20 cm) baking pan or line with parchment paper.
2. Make Streusel
   In a bowl, mix brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until crumbly. Set aside.
3. Prepare Cake Batter
   • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
   • In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy (2–3 minutes).
   • Beat in eggs one at a time. Add vanilla.
   • Mix in sour cream and milk.
   • Gradually add the dry ingredients until just combined.
   • Gently fold in blueberries.
4. Assemble the Cake
   • Spread batter evenly in the prepared pan.
   • Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the top.
5. Bake
   Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Cool and Serve
   Let cool for 15–20 minutes. Slice and enjoy warm or at room temperature.

💡 Tips

• Add a lemon zest to the batter for a bright twist.
• Store leftovers covered at room temp for 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5.
