  • Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
  • Yield: 10–12 slices

Ingredients

  • Crumb Topping: 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • Cream Cheese Layer: 8 oz cream cheese (softened), 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 large egg, 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Cake Layer: 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened), 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 large egg, 1 cup sour cream or plain yogurt, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan or baking dish.
  2. Make the crumb topping: In a bowl, mix flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir in melted butter until crumbly; set aside.
  3. Make the cream cheese layer: Beat cream cheese, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla until smooth; set aside.
  4. Make the cake: Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg, sour cream, and vanilla. Mix in dry ingredients just until combined.
  5. Spread cake batter evenly in the pan. Top with cream cheese mixture, then sprinkle blueberries evenly over the cream cheese.
  6. Sprinkle crumb topping evenly over the blueberries, pressing gently so it adheres.
  7. Bake 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • Add lemon zest to the cake batter for a citrus twist.
  • Use a mix of blueberries and raspberries for more variety.
  • Drizzle with a simple glaze after cooling for extra sweetness.
  • Replace sour cream with Greek yogurt for tangier flavor.
  • Chill before slicing for neat, clean cuts.
