Here in Prince Edward Island (eastern Canada ) we are into
blueberry season. They do grow wild but we have a large
amount that are cultivated and grown by farmers. Here are a
couple of my favorite blueberry recipes. The first is a
coffee cake type recipe that was given to me by a lady who
lives near my mother. The other is a muffin recipe that is
my family's favorite.
Blueberry Cake
1/4 cup shortening
3/4 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
3/4 cup milk
1 3/4 cups flour
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups blueberries
2 tbsp white sugar
Topping:
1/2 cup flour
1/4 cup margarine or butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8 x 8 pan. Cream
shortening and sugar. Add egg and vanilla and beat until
fluffy. Mix together flour, baking powder and salt. Add
alternately with milk. Pour 1/2 of the batter in the pan.
Combine 1 1/2 cup blueberries and 2 tbsp white sugar. Place
blueberries and sugar over the batter. Pour rest of batter
over the top of blueberries. Mix topping and crumble over
the cake batter. Bake 40 minutes or until cake tests done.
