I don't make coffee cakes very often. Not sure why as I really enjoy eating them. I like using sour cream in some of my bread recipes for how it makes them really moist so I was really excited to make this Blueberry Sour Cream Coffee Cake.
I'm also including a simple glaze recipe you can use to drizzle over the top of the cake but this is totally optional. You just need to make sure the coffee cake is still a little warm when you drizzle it on.
I like the way this coffee cake comes turns out in a bundt pan but feel free to use whatever type of baking dish you want.
Just make sure it's big enough to handle all the batter this recipe makes. It might also affect baking times so you would also need to pay attention to that if you use a different type of pan.
If you enjoy coffee cake, make sure you give my English Apple Coffee Cake a try. Just as tasty as this one! Or you can give my Christmas Morning Coffee Cake a try during the Holidays!
For another delicious blueberry cake, you need to make my Lemon Blueberry Loaf Cake.

I absolutely love coffee cake but a lot of times it was too dry. Your recipe for blueberry coffee cake is so delicious, I'm kind of sorry I found it. I way over ate. Can't wait to try others.

Can you substitute the fresh blueberries with frozen berries?
Chef Rodney
I haven't made this recipe with frozen blueberries but I see no reason why you can't. I would not thaw them out. Toss the frozen blueberries in a little flour then add to the batter.
Jean Petty
I made this but added 1 cup more in the blueberries. It turned out delicious.
Laurie Norris
I followed the recipe instructions and exact ingredients. I feel there were to many steps to be considered easy. The batter was very thick and had to be spooned into bunt pan. baking checked at 50 min. Not quite done it took 55 min. It was not over baked but was on the dry side. I think if I were to make it again I would use less eggs and distribute the blue berries throughout the mix. It did have a pretty good flavor the the brown sugar topping and glaze were good.. thanks I always enjoy try different recipes.
Clara
Cake was good but very dry,what should I do next time if I make it again? I love blueberries.I was hoping it would be MORE MOIST !!!
Mariette Rosa

Terri
Very good texture and moistness to the cake. Needed a little more flavor. Next time i make it i will try adding a teaspoon of lemon extract along with the vanilla. Will replu to my comment to let everyone know how it was.
