The Best Blueberry
Vanilla Bean Coffee Cake
I know, I know – everyone says there coffee cake is the BEST…well, this is seriously the BEST Gluten free version I have EVER enjoyed.
It’s perfectly balanced with blueberries and cake – sweetened with brown sugar and lots of vanilla. Then that crumb topping – more brown sugar with the right about of butter and cinnamon.
You won’t believe that it’s gluten free!
If I...
If I had a bakery, I would sell this. It’s that good.
The brown sugar, hints of cinnamon and lemon – and of course blueberries, so good. I love how the coconut cream, eggs and butter make it perfectly moist, buttery and fluffy.
