A Tender Buttery Cake Base

 

Its base is a soft, buttery cake of blueberry buckle. A proper creaming of butter and sugar will ensure that the texture remains light and remains moist even after baking is complete. What is produced is a light crumb that goes along with the plump berries and does not make it heavy.

 

Fresh Blueberries Make a Difference

 

The fresh, ripe blueberries are used to enhance the flavor and texture. They are prepared baking, which results in the natural juices that are mixed well into the cake. In case of unavailability of fresh berries, frozen berries can also be used but only by folding them in so as to leave them without too much moisture.

 

The Signature Crumb Topping

 

The distinguishing feature of a buckle is the plain streusel top. A pie is made of a blend of flour, sugar, and butter thus forming a slightly crisp layer that tends to buckle as it bakes. This is the difference between the soft cake and the crumbly top which makes the dessert classic.

A Recipe That Welcomes Variations

 

Although blueberries are customary, you can also use other types of fruits such as raspberries or diced apples. The flavor can also be improved by adding some touch of cinnamon or zest of lemon. The recipes used are open and customizable.

 

Best Served Slightly Warm

 

It is better that the buckle be allowed to cool a little to get set without rendering the inside hard. It is best served simply warm to serve as an added buttery flavor and smoothness. Light sprinkling of powdered sugar may provide a simple decoration.
