How to Make Blueberry Or Cherry Coffee Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a single 8x12 inch baking pan, or use baking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs, 1 egg white, 1 cup sour cream, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix well.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. In a medium bowl, combine the crumble topping ingredients (see below). Mix until crumbly.
  7. Pour half of the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  8. Top with 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries (or cherries).
  9. Pour the remaining batter over the fruit and spread evenly.
  10. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the batter.
  11. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before serving.
