Pin Accomplished: Yummy Blueberry Breakfast Cake

This week's "Pin Accomplished" . . . Buttermilk-Blueberry Breakfast Cake - courtesy of Alexandra's Kitchen.
Alexandra's tale of her search for just the right recipe to cure her carb craving made me smile...
"an old photocopied sheet of paper in my mother’s hand writing, I spotted a note: 'Baby Boy’s Favorite.' Oh Baby Boy. Baby Boy is my younger brother, my parents’ favorite child, and one of the most satisfying people to cook for."
Alexandra's Breakfast Cake made my boys, and our friends (who we were visiting in VT) smile too.


My notes --
  •  I substituted frozen blueberries (that the boys & I picked this summer).
  • Next time, I think I'll increase the two cups of blueberries to 2 1/2 or even three cups...me likey blueberries!
  • I like the bit of sweet crunch you get from sanding sugar on top of baked goods, so I substituted it for the granulated sugar, and generously sprinkled it on top.
  • Good bake-ahead recipe -- I baked this Friday morning, let it cool completely before covering, then transported it to VT...it was fabulous Saturday morning for breakfast.
