Delicious Blueberry Buckle Recipe – A Classic American Dessert

Ingredients

Servings:
8
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup brown sugar (for topping)

Instructions

7 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round baking pan.

    Make sure the oven is fully preheated before placing the batter inside.
  2. Mix the Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.

    Use room temperature butter for easier mixing.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.

    Sifting the flour can help prevent lumps.
  4. Add Ingredients

    Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, alternating with milk, and mix until just combined. Fold in the blueberries.

    Be careful not to overmix to keep the buckle tender.
  5. Prepare for Baking

    Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and sprinkle the brown sugar on top.

    This will create a nice crunchy topping.
  6. Bake the Buckle

    Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

    Keep an eye on it towards the end to avoid overbaking.
  7. Cool and Serve

    Allow the buckle to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

    Enjoy with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence!
