Blueberry Streusel Coffee Cake. It’s everything you didn’t know you needed. It’s like a blueberry muffin and coffee cake had a baby. Soft, fluffy cake meets tart blueberries and the golden crunch of streusel—because, of course, the more crunch, the better. If you’re looking for something that looks fancy but doesn’t take hours of effort, you’ve found your match. This isn’t just cake; it’s an experience. Prepare to fall in love with breakfast all over again. You might even forget about that diet (for a second, at least).
