Banana Blueberry Coffee Cake

By Lstracy

This recipe is very moist and dense and rich like a coffee cake. The topping finishes off this coffee cake with a buttery, caramel, crunchy flavor. This coffee cake was a hit with my most critical critics. My daughters and sons in laws, who always try to one up me with a better recipe. This started out to be a banana bread, and I tweaked it with indgredients on hand, and turned it into a coffee cake. Great recipe for those who are lactose intollerant.
Another way I prepare this, is double the topping recipe, pour half the batter, sprinkle half the topping, then rest of batter. Sprinkle remaining topping.
