What is a buckle? It is a yellow batter with the filling or fruit mixed in. A buckle also has a streusel topping. This buckle I loaded with large ripe blueberries. The cake is very moist and bursting with fresh blueberries. This is a terrific dessert served warm and equally delicious as a breakfast snack or afternoon treat with a cup of tea. While this was baking, our house smelled sensational. The warm cake baking with the cinnamon topped streusel aroma filled the house. Warm from the oven with a scoop of vanilla ice cream – divine!
