I have several VN women that I exchange recipes with on a regular basis, along with other ideas that have to do with baking, spices, cooking etc. We know so many of you VN women are watching your fat and calorie intake (I sin and ask for forgiveness later) so we just contact each other via E-mail or phone. This was the first recipe that I shared with the group.
I am asked at least 2-3 times a month to bake it for a friend or neighbor. My wife demands it every Sunday. I have been baking it for 25 years.
It is loaded with the good stuff, fat and white ingredients.
I don't drink, smoke or take drugs. So, if this is what kills me, I will die happy.
I hope you try it and ENJOY it. It is one of my most sacred recipes and I wanted o share it with you. As always, use the freshest ingredients you can find. It is also good as a dessert. I make fresh whip cream and dust it with nutmeg and add a sprig of mint OR for my wife, I add a scoop of Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream.
I am always on the lookout for a new recipe. I bake every day!
Good & Easy:
Blueberry Sour Cream Coffee Cake
1/2 C. butter - room temp
1 C. white sugar
2 eggs - close to room temp
1 T Almond Flavor
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
2 C. flour (I use White Lily)
1 1/4 sour cream
Mix together. I really just throw it all in and it makes a divine batter that is very aromatic. Batter will be creamy.
Rinse blueberries and dust with flour to help settle in batter. Gently fold into batter. Careful not to break up blueberries.
Mix 1/2 C. white sugar
1 T cinnamon
1/2 C. nuts of choice. I use pecans.
Lightly spray bundt pan. Pour 1/2 the batter in pan. Add as much cinnamon mix to taste. I add nearly 1 C.
I use the leftover for french toast. Add the remaining mixture.
Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes. DO NOT over bake.
It should be a golden color.
After baking, set on cookie sheet to cool. I let it set about 30 minutes. That's all it will last around here. Garnish & enjoy.
