What makes blueberry coffee cake so moist and fluffy?
There are a few things that contribute to the moist, fluffy texture of blueberry coffee cake.
First, the butter and sugar are creamed together until they’re light and fluffy before any other ingredients are added. This creates a nice base for the cake batter.
Second, sour cream is often used in the batter, which also helps to create a moist texture.
Finally, adding blueberries to the batter helps to create pockets of moisture throughout the cake.
All of these factors contribute to the moist, fluffy texture that makes blueberry coffee cake so delicious!

Components of a Blueberry Sour Cream Coffee Cake
There are two main components of a coffee cake making it quite simple and easy to make. These are:
- The base: The base is what resembles the cake. It is spongy, moist, tasteful, and rich. This is where sour cream and blueberries are used. It is pretty much like any other cake.
- The crumb: The crumb is the topping. This part makes it so much like a cobbler. The crumb is made with flour, butter, sugar, and walnuts. So, you get a crunchy element, as well.
The best thing about this cake is that it is a single-step cake. It means you don’t have to bake elements separately.
You can prepare the two components and stack them upon each other and bake. It is very convenient for someone who is in a hurry.

Tips for making Blueberry Sour Cream Coffee Cake
Here are a few things you must keep in mind when making this tasteful cake:
- I have used walnuts in the crumb, but you can use pecans or almonds as well. The main idea is to bring in a crunchy element. It can be anything you like.
- I prefer to use sweet cream butter instead of regular unsalted butter. That’s because sweet cream butter makes the cake richer.
- Don’t overmix the cake batter.
- Always keep the blueberries for the last. Never use an electric mixer for mixing blueberries. Use a spatula to fold them in so as not to break open the berries.
- Always insert a toothpick or fork before taking the cake out of the oven. Once it comes out clean, the cake is ready.
- Wait until the cake is completely cool before you serve it.
NOTE: This cake tastes particularly amazing in the morning with a cup of freshly brewed coffee. You can also serve it with tea.
