Ingredients
| ¾ | cup melted and cooled |
|---|---|
| 1 | cup whole milk |
| 3 | large eggs |
| 1 | teaspoon vanilla extract |
| 1 ½ | cups granular sucrolose sweetener (such as Splenda®) |
| 2 | teaspoons baking powder |
| 3 | cups all-purpose flour |
| 1 ¾ | cups fresh or frozen blueberries |
| 1 ½ | cups malitol brown sugar substitute |
| ¾ | cup flour |
| 2 | teaspoons ground cinnamon |
| ½ | cup softened butter |
Instructions
| 1. | Begin by preheating the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and generously greasing and flouring a 9x13 inch baking pan. |
|---|---|
| 2. | In a spacious bowl, combine the cooled melted butter, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and 1 1/2 cups of granular sucrolose sweetener. Proceed by mixing in 3 cups of all-purpose flour and baking powder until just incorporated. Gently fold in the fresh or frozen blueberries, ensuring an even distribution, before spreading the batter evenly into the prepared pan. |
| 3. | For the crumb topping, in a separate bowl, mix the malitol brown sugar substitute, flour, and ground cinnamon. Incorporate the softened butter using a fork until a crumbly mixture forms. Sprinkle this topping generously over the cake. |
| 4. | Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The coffee cake is best enjoyed while still warm. |
