Your cake is so lovely, Ann! I love blueberries and I will definitely enjoy this cake.
Can I use normal round baking pan?
Yes you can but must be very careful when overturning the cake.
Hi, I love cinnamon. I baked the cake yesterday. Awesome. Thank for the recipe
Hi Casey, I’m happy to hear that 😀
I am gonna try with strawberry tonight, for tmrw gathering. Hope it turn out great.
Looks very yummy, I knew a similar recipe but I’ll try this one to see what happens. Thanks!
Anything with crumble is irresistible, Ann. This looks out of this world!
Tq for the wonderful recipe. I tried it, it’s very light and tasty. Can I bake ahead to keep overnight as I need to bake 3 for a large party. Can I keep outside or must be kept in the fridge? Thanks.
Hi Rachel, Better keep the cake in the fridge and thaw it at room temperature the next day before consuming.
TQ Ann, I forgot to reply ?… I baked the cake and it was very yummy. Do u reckon we can make cupcake sizes? If yes, bake for how long and how many you think this recipe can make?
Hi Rachel, You can bake this cake into cupcake sizes (batter 3/4 full) at 180 deg C for about 20-25 mins. Please test the cake with a skewer before removing from the oven. I estimate about 20 cupcakes or more as there is more flour and buttermilk in the recipe.
Hi Ann, the cupcakes version turned out fabulous. Do you think I could add ground almond to the crumble to give it extra crunch? If yes how much would you reckon? Tq
Hi Rachel, you can add about 2 tbsp ground almond or chopped almond to the crumble.
