Blueberry Buckle: Preheat
your oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Butter,
or spray with a non-stick vegetable spray, six - 8 ounce (240 ml) ramekins or
heatproof cups.
Streusel Topping: In a bowl,
mix together the flour, sugars, and ground cinnamon. Cut the butter into
the dry ingredients using
a pastry blender or fork until it resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside while
you make the cake batter.
Cake Batter: In a separate bowl
whisk the flour with the baking powder and salt.
In the bowl of your electric mixer,
fitted with the paddle attachment, or with a hand mixer, beat the butter until smooth. Add the sugar and beat until light
and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until incorporated. Scape down
the sides and bottom of your bowl as needed. Add
the flour mixture (in three additions), alternately with the milk (in two
additions), and beat only until combined. Spread about 1/4 cup (65 grams) of
the batter into the bottom of
each ramekin, smoothing the tops.
Filling: In a large bowl, mix
together the blueberries, lemon juice, flour, and sugar. Place about 1/2 cup (75
grams) of the blueberries into each ramekin, and then sprinkle each with about 1/3 cup
(35 grams) of the streusel topping.
Place the ramekins on a baking
sheet and bake for about 25 - 30 minutes or until the streusel
has browned and
the blueberry filling starts to bubble. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool
for about 20 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature with softly whipped cream or
vanilla ice cream.
Makes 6 - 8 ounce (240 ml)
servings.
