If you love Blueberries you MUST try this Buttermilk Blueberry Breakfast Cake recipe! A delicious dense cake for you to enjoy with a cup of coffee.

This breakfast cake has tons of fresh blueberries in it. I will admit I am a Blueberry fiend so this Blueberry cake suits me just fine.

If you prefer fewer blueberries, you can use 1 Cup of fresh blueberries instead of the 1 1/2 Cups listed in the recipe card. But remember, this is a Blueberry cake…. Just sayin'.

🥛 Buttermilk Substitution

If you don't have Buttermilk on hand, you can use this trick as a substitute: Add one tablespoon of lemon juice to a measuring cup. Add milk and fill to the 1 cup measurement line. Stir the mixture together and let sit for 5 minutes.
