Blueberry Buckle
for a warm, cozy morning
This recipe comes from my mom's best friend and recent neighbor, Sandy Olexsy. Sandy would make Blueberry Buckle for her family and gave us the recipe. My mom would make it for us as well for special weekend mornings, always when we visited home from college or from North Carolina.
Every time I smell this baking, I think of Mrs. Olexsy. One time when my mom made it, she realized she forgot to add the blueberries! We all had a great laugh!
The mix of cinnamon, sugar, and warm blueberries is an unforgettable taste, especially on a cold winter morning. I'm excited to share this recipe with you and hope you give it a try!
