This recipe has been passed around among the women of my church for years. Everyone loves the abundance of blueberries and the streusel topping.—Anna Higbee, Absecon, New Jersey

Ingredients

1/4 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup buttermilk
2-1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
TOPPING:
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup cold butter, cubed

Directions

In a bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and vanilla; mix well. Combine 2 cups of flour, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk. Mix well. Toss berries in remaining flour; fold into batter (discard any flour that doesn't stick to berries). Spread batter in a greased 9-in. square baking pan. For topping, combine flour, sugars and cinnamon; cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over batter. Bake at 375° for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
