Blueberry Coffee Cake (lightened up)

Made this coffee cake along with a couple frittatas for the family breakfast away from home last weekend - I didn't get a good picture because I'm super forgetful but it's the square cake between the fruit bowl and frittatas in the back in this photo:


I've been making this recipe for years, and we like it enough that it earned a place in my recipe keeper hahaha - I have waaaaaay too many recipes in files and cookbooks and I only keep the repeats in my binder!



  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 c. skim milk
  • 1/2 c. plain nonfat yogurt
  • 3 T. vegetable oil
  • 2 c. flour
  • 1/2 c. sugar
  • 4 t. baking powder
  • 1/2 t. salt
  • 1 1/2 c. blueberries
topping
  • 3 T. sugar
  • 1/4 t. cinnamon

Preheat oven 400'. Spray an 8" baking pan with non-stick spray. 

Whisk together egg, milk, yogurt, oil. Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; add to liquid mixture. Do not overtax. Fold in blueberries. Sprinkle with topping.

Bake 20-25 minutes. Cool on rack for 10 minutes.

NOTE: I added about 1/2 cup applesauce just to ensure it'd be moist, and 1/2 t. cinnamon to the batter for a little extra flavor.
