Techniques
- 120 g all-purpose flour
- ¼ tsp salt
- 165 g light brown sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 6 tbsp softened butter
In a medium bowl combine 120 g all-purpose flour, a quarter teaspoon of salt, 165 g light brown sugar and a teaspoon of cinnamon.
Making the streusel topping
Work six tablespoons of softened butter in with forks or clean hands until it forms clumps; squeeze a couple of handfuls into rocks and break them up so there is a mix of powder and big pieces.
Preheat the oven to 350F and line a buttered nine by nine inch pan with parchment paper.
- 300 g all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp salt
- 2½ tsp baking powder
Whisk 300 g all-purpose flour with half a teaspoon of salt and two and a half teaspoons of baking powder and set aside.
- 10 tbsp softened butter
- 250 g sugar
- lemon zest
Beat 10 tablespoons of softened butter with 250 g sugar and the lemon zest on high about four minutes until light and fluffy.
- eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing in, along with a teaspoon of vanilla; the mixture may break and will come back with more mixing.
Eggs, vanilla and a broken mixture
- ⅔ cup milk
Add the flour in three batches, alternating with half of the two thirds of a cup of milk each time, mixing on low and folding the last of it in to clear any streaks.
- 2 cup blueberries
Fold in two cups of blueberries so they are evenly distributed.
Level the batter in the prepared pan and sprinkle the streusel evenly over the top.
