Minnesota Blueberry Upside Down Cake




I LOVE blueberries and am always looking for recipes I can use them in. I found this one in another OLD church cookbook....they are the BEST source for great recipes.

This is one of those recipes that you can add as much or as little sugar depending on how sweet you want your cake to be. I think the blueberries are usually sweet enough, so I added 3/4 cup of brown sugar to the topping, and 3/4 c. sugar to the cake itself. I may even try less next time I make it.

Every bite is bursting with blueberries in a delicious caramelized topping...it's out standing. It was awesome still warm with some cream on top!

Wow this looks and sounds awesome Laurie. Just happen to have 3 eggs and some blueberries sitting in my fridge so will be trying this out. Just a question. After you sprinkle the brown sugar in the bottom of the pan do you put in the blueberries then the topping. Your notes don't say. Thanks. Appreciated.
