As Healthy as Possible....Blueberry Coffee Cake Recipe

Posted Apr 02 2011 9:03am

This blueberry coffee cake recipe has been somewhat "healthified."   The whole grain flour, coconut oil, and real fruit are an improvement over white flour, shortening, and no fruit, so you can indulge without too much guilt!  I also try to indulge wisely by controlling portion sizes and filling up on healthier choices that pack a protein punch such as yogurt or scrambled eggs.


This is a great brunch recipe since it takes 45 minutes to bake....too long for my routine breakfast requirements, but we are on spring break this week and I had time to make this blueberry coffee cake the night before so it was ready to heat and serve when the kids got up (much too early for me to really be on vacation by the way!)  Moist and nearly overflowing with blueberries, this coffee cake will sweeten your morning!
