Imagine a warm slice of this Blueberry Buckle with your morning coffee! To butter or not?
Blueberry Buckle (Coffee Cake)
A “buckle” is an old-fashioned single-layer cake much like a coffee cake. It is a heavy batter that when baked, sinks to the bottom of the pan, “buckling” the top which like a coffee cake, has a streusel-style topping.
