This blueberry coffee cake is moist and full of cinnamon flavor which is perfectly accompanied by juicy blueberries! It has a crumbly and buttery topping. Usually, coffee cake isn't the healthiest thing out there and something you probably don't want to have for breakfast every day. But this coffee cake is different! It's made healthier with the addition of coconut sugar, spelt flour, and coconut oil! No butter here and only a little sugar to keep things sweet and delicious! You could get away with having some of this coffee cake for breakfast and not feel too bad about it.

  1. The recipe is billed as gluten free. Spelt is NOT gluten free. Is there some other flour you would recommend using here in place of the spelt? Thanks!

  2. Is the 1 cup of spelt flour the only flour used in the cake part of the recipe (besides the topping)? It doesn’t seem like a lot for the amount of liquid used. Just wanted to make sure.
