This was really good. As suggested by many others, I substituted brown sugar for the white sugar and added cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Delish!!! I think I will make 1 1/2 times the topping next time, or maybe even double it. This is a really good recipe. Everyone in my family really enjoyed it.

Terrific recipe. I used 10x15 pan and doubled the topping substituting brown sugar for the white.

Just like this site, this cake was fabulous! I added nuts and a teaspoon of cinnamon to the crumb topping as others suggested and everyone raved over this cake. So moist and flavorful, wonderful texture and great presentation if baked in a 9" springform pan. [Although you do not have to use all the batter if baked in a springform pan.] Thanks for making my research to find the best coffeecake so easy!

I know what I like in coffee cakes and was looking for something to use up some boysenberries. The recipe was modified quite a bit: replaced 1 cup of flour with whole wheat flour, decreased sugar to 1 cup. The topping had the most revisions: added 2/3 cup oats, 1 tsp cinnamon, 3/4 cup chopped walnuts and used brown sugar instead of white sugar. This was spectacular. I will keep this recipe handy to use for any berry coffeecake.

This does make a large cake. I didn't use as much sugar as it calls for and it still turned out fantastic. Everyone loved it and was asking for the recipe. I will use this one again but when I have a large crowd.

This was really good when I made it for Easter brunch. I tossed the blueberries with a little flour to prevent them from sinking. I added some chopped pecans to half of the topping (we have both nut lovers and nut haters in the family) and sprinkled half of the cake with plain topping and half with nut topping. I actually preferred the plain side and I usually like nuts. I will add this to my recipe box and make it again.

This is a absolutely wonderful accompaniment to a hearty breakfast for many. It is a coffeecake with good body to it and no sinking blueberries here. It was great and I will do this recipe again when serving a crowd.

We all love this one. Buttermilk is the secret that sets this apart from others. Advice from others is helpful for substitutions, tips, etc.

I think this bread could have been a bit sweeter, and mine turned out chewy for some reason. Overall not bad but could use improvements; I may try it again and add different things (such as more cinnamon and sugar).

This coffee cake was excellent! I cut the recipe in half but pretty much followed the original. I did use about 1 1/4 cup buttermilk instead of 1. Also used frozen blueberries, partially defrosted. For the struesel topping I used 1/2 brown sugar and put in a little cinnamon. Baked for 48 minutes in a dark pan. The blueberries did sink to the bottom despite dusting them with flour but no matter. It was perfect - very moist!

Exceptional! The only modifications I made were as follows: halved the recipe, used an 8x8 dish, sub'd almond extract for the vanilla, added 1/4c crushed toasted almonds to batter, added 1/4c crushed toasted almonds to topping. This was truly exceptional. Great flavor, extremely moist and not at all difficult to make. I recommend this highly and would definitely make again!!

I've made this about 10 times and just LOVE it. It is best if a little undercooked rather than overcooked. No one seems to mind to goo. It tastes so good!

Excellent. I used fresh blueberries and dusted them with flour and they stayed throughout the cake. The buttermilk makes the batter thicker which helps keep the berries suspended, but also gives you a tangy, moist cake. The white sugar topping adds a nice finishing touch. This is the best blueberry cake recipe yet!

This is a very easy recipe to make and does it ever make plenty. I cut the recipe in half and made a 8x8 pan filled to the brim. It did take about 20 minutes longer to cook than in the instruction stated.

This was a huge hit for Easter morning and was very easy...I used frozen blueberries and it was good, but would have been better w/ fresh blueberries.
