Aunt Joan's Blueberry Buckle
One of the things I most look forward to during the holidays is sharing yummy food with loved ones, and this Blueberry Buckle that our Aunt Joan brings to family gatherings is one of my favorites. Bursting with juicy blueberries and finished with a cinnamon sugar crumb topping, my mouth waters just thinking about it. Great served for breakfast, afternoon snack, or dessert - no adornment needed. I should mention it stays moist for days if refrigerated in an airtight container, but you may not need to worry about that once your family tastes it.
