Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed and drained)
• 1/4 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans, optional)

How to Make Blueberry Cream Cheese Crumble Cake

1. Preheat your oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. Make the crumble topping: In a bowl, mix together the rolled oats, melted butter, brown sugar, flour, and salt. Stir until crumbly and set aside.
3. Prepare the cream cheese filling: In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with granulated sugar and vanilla extract until smooth. Add the egg and mix until fully incorporated.
4. Layer the cake: Pour half of the crumble mixture into the bottom of the prepared cake pan, pressing it down gently. Spread the cream cheese filling over the crumble, then add the fresh blueberries on top. Finally, sprinkle the remaining crumble mixture over the blueberries.
5. Bake: Place the cake in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
6. Cool and serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips for the Best Results

• Use room temperature cream cheese for a smoother filling.
• If using frozen blueberries, ensure they are well-drained to avoid excess moisture.
• For an extra flavor boost, add a pinch of cinnamon to the crumble topping.
• Let the cake cool completely before cutting for cleaner slices.

Easy Variations

• Swap out blueberries for raspberries or strawberries for a different fruit twist.
• Add a teaspoon of lemon zest to the cream cheese mixture for a refreshing citrus flavor.
• For a gluten-free option, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.

What to Serve With It

• A dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream complements the cake beautifully.
• Pair it with a cup of freshly brewed coffee or tea for a delightful afternoon treat.
• Serve alongside fresh fruit for a refreshing contrast.
