How to Make Blueberries And Cream Cheese Coffee Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Rinse 2 cups of blueberries in cool water to slightly thaw if frozen.
  3. Gently toss blueberries with 1/4 cup all-purpose flour.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter, 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar, and 3 large eggs until light and fluffy.
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  6. In a small bowl, combine 1 cup milk and 1/4 cup water.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) and the wet ingredients (milk mixture) to the creamed butter-sugar-egg mixture, alternating between the two and beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  8. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and the zest of 1 lemon.
  9. Cut 4 ounces cream cheese into small cubes (about 1/4 inch).
  10. Gently fold the cream cheese cubes and blueberries into the batter.
  11. Pour batter into a greased and floured 13x9 inch baking pan.
  12. In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional), and 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use a fork or your fingers to combine until crumbly.
  13. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the cake batter.
  14. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
  15. Let cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
