Equipment

  • 9-inch Square Baking Pan
  • mini food processor
  • large bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour approximately 9 ounces
  • 0.5 cups sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 large egg lightly beaten
  • 0.5 cups milk
  • 0.25 cups butter or margarine softened (NOT melted)
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

Topping

  • 0.33 cups sugar
  • 0.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.25 cups walnuts finely chopped
  • 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons cold butter or margarine

Drizzle (optional)

  • 0.5 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk more or less to get to a drizzling consistency

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F and spray or grease a 9-inch square baking pan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar and baking powder. Cut butter into small pieces.
  • Add egg, milk, butter and lemon peel; mix just until dry ingredients are moistened. You may need to finish mixing with your hands to get all the flour incorporated. The batter will be very thick.
  • Fold in the blueberries. Because the batter is so thick, this may take a few minutes. Spread into a greased 9-inch square baking pan.
  • For topping, combine sugar, flour, walnuts and cinnamon in a mini food processor or bowl. Add butter and pulse, or cut in if doing by hand, until mixture is crumbly. Don't over process. Sprinkle over batter.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 40-45 minutes or until cake tests done.
  • For drizzle, combine the powdered sugar and milk. If too thick, add a few drops of additional milk at a time until it reaches drizzling consistency. Drizzle over the top of the cake and allow to sit until sugar solidifies.

Notes

This breakfast cake can be stored at room temperature (covered) for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
