I had some leftover Greek yogurt in the fridge from making a recipe yesterday and a bunch of blueberries; so what do I make? Yes, coffee cake sounds good. Not just to have with your coffee, I love coffee cake and blueberries and together with a crunch crumb topping is a bit of heaven on your plate for any time of day….even on a Thursday…lol. Since this isn’t for a party, I had one little bite and gave the rest away, better than throwing it in the trash and pouring hot sauce all over it so I wouldn’t eat it (true story) so I brought the rest of the cake with me to my hair stylist so everyone in the shop can enjoy it… have cake will travel. It’s amazing when I walked into the shop with this coffee cake, all eyes were on me; I said, back off girls there is plenty for everyone.
