Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch springform pan with cooking spray. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, cinnamon, allspice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Pour in 1/2 cup melted butter and stir with a fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside. (10 minutes)

03

Step

In a large bowl, stir together 2 cups flour, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, 1/2 cup melted butter, egg, almond extract, and lemon zest. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir just until combined – do not overmix. (10 minutes)

04

Step

In a small bowl, gently toss blueberries with 1 teaspoon flour. This prevents them from sinking to the bottom of the cake. Gently fold the coated blueberries into the cake batter. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Spoon the batter into the prepared springform pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the batter, covering the surface. Place the pan on the prepared baking sheet. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the crumb topping is golden brown. (45-55 minutes)

07

Step

Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 30 minutes. Run a table knife around the inside edge of the pan before releasing the springform. Dust with confectioners' sugar before serving, if desired. (30 minutes)

For extra flavor, try browning the butter for the crumb topping. This adds a nutty depth.
If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular cake pan, but be sure to grease and flour it well.
Feel free to substitute other berries, such as raspberries or blackberries, for the blueberries.
The cake is best served warm or at room temperature on the same day it's baked, but it can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
