One bite of this insanely-moist, berry-loaded, crumb coffee cake and you will be instantly hooked! It’s so easy to whip up and perfect for a summer brunch or just for snacking on any ‘ol time!
You game for a little summer baking? I mean, we obviously have to get at least a little bit in before it gets so ridiculously hot you don’t want ANYTHING to do with that thing called your oven that turns your house into a sauna-wannabe.
So therefore a summery coffee cake on just a regular ‘ol Monday in the wee days of June is a must for today. Because streusel = the ONLY known cure to a case of the Mondays. I stand by that as a fact.
I also stand by coffee cake with my iced coffee latte every.darn.day. If we’re being honest here.
So let’s talk about your breakfast wannabe for today and probably all the days for the forseeable future. —> —> Step over this way please.
…it’s really only just a hop, skip, and a jump away from complete and utter HEAVEN.
Okay, listen up y’all. Here’s how Monday heaven is going down in this exact order.
- Sarah loses her mind and takes the batter from THIS banana bread insanity. Moistest.banana bread.ever.
- She loads it up with her one berry love which is blueberries. And tons of ’em.
- She then proceeds to dump a Mt. Everest-sized pile of streusel on top. Seriously, there’s crumb topping in every.single.centimeter.
- The whole glorious mess goes into a 9×13 which is going to make for one tall and one gloriously-huge coffee cake.
- Coffee cake goes in and out of the oven. Approximately 13 minutes later, only minuscule crumbs remain because you just don’t leave heaven waiting.
Soooooo…a little light Monday summer baking is a GO, yes? Honestly, you could eat this for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or ALL because it’s just that high amount of GOOD.
I vote for all. Shocker.
Final pro Monday tip: Always make sure you have that iced latte close nearby wherever you have this coffee cake. It’s still Monday after all.
