Equipment

  • Bundt Pan Can substitute for cake pan or 9x13 pan

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all purpose flour can substitute for King Arthur gluten-free flour
  • 1 cup white granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ¼ cup non-dairy milk almond, unsweetened
  • ½ cup vegan sour cream I used Forager
  • cup coconut oil melted
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups fresh blueberries can substitute for frozen*

Streusel topping

  • 4 tablespoon melted vegan butter
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup all purpose flour

Lemon Glaze

  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 -2 tablespoon water
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • In a large bowl combine dry ingredients: Flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Whisk until combined.
  • Add wet ingredients to dry including milk, vegan sour cream, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
  • Fold in blueberries.
  • Butter or oil your bundt pan (or cake pan) (Don't skimp on this part).
  • Pour batter into pan. Combine your streusel ingredients in a small bowl and sprinkle on top of batter.
  • Bake at 400F for 8 minutes then turn down to 350F for ~40 minutes.
  • Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes before removing from bundt pan or cutting. Make your lemon glaze while you wait by whisking all ingredients together in a small bowl (add in a little extra water for desired consistency).
  • I recommend only drizzling lemon glaze on parts of the cake you will be eating at that time or else it will get soggy.
  • Serve your coffee cake with a cup of coffee or tea and enjoy!

Notes

  • To use frozen blueberries in coffee cake, simply add them to the batter along with the other ingredients. You don't need to thaw the blueberries first, but you may want to toss them in a little flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the cake while it bakes. The baking time may need to be adjusted slightly, so be sure to check the cake for doneness using a toothpick or cake tester.
  • To make this cake gluten-free use King Arthur gluten-free flour.
  • If you don't have vegan sour cream you can substitute for vegan plain yogurt or greek yogurt.
  • Storage: Vegan blueberry coffee cake is best enjoyed fresh, but it can also be stored for later. To store the cake, let it cool completely after baking. Place it in an airtight container, and store it at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cake for longer storage. Wrap the cake tightly in plastic wrap, and then place it in a freezer-safe container. The cake will keep for up to 3 months in the freezer. To thaw the cake, transfer it to the refrigerator overnight, or let it sit at room temperature for a few hours. The cake will taste just as delicious as when it was first baked.
