This recipe was a hit in my house. The ginger inside of the cake added great flavor and I also added a dash of Allspice and Cinnamon in the topping.

I didn't care for this recipe at all. With nutmeg and ginger in it I should have known better. I DO like those flavors but not in my dessert. After painstakingling picking a pound of wild blueberries I wished I'd used a more traditional recipe. This is going to sound strange but when it came out of the oven and I leaned in to smell, it reminded me of macaroni and cheese! Weird, I know! No doubt it was the nutmeg/bechemel connection. In the future I will use store bought frozen berries for the trial run and use the good stuff for my tried and true recipes.

Oh, WOW!!!!! This is absolutely delicious! It is sweet, moist, and perfect. I did not have any problems with cooking it--35 minutes was fine. I used the ginger and it gave a unique flavor which added to the yumminess. Instead of nutmeg in the mixture on top, I used a mixture I had of cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice and it was great!!!! I made this for breakfast this morning, but I will make it as a dessert later this week and will serve it warm with blueberry ice cream.....I LOVE this recipe!!!!!

I normally don't make a recipe the same day I find it but I did this one. I followed the recipe exactly - in he beginning. However, I cut the amount of blueberries to 2 and 1/2 cups which seemed plenty. I did use the ginger and liked it; it made the cake's flavor a little more unique than other blueberry cake recipes. It was definitely not completely baked after 35 minutes but after 43 minutes my cake tester came out clean. I just finished eating a piece and it was fantastic; it was extremely moist! Even my husband liked it and he does not ordinarily eat blueberries! It was a very easy recipe to follow and would be great to take as part of a hostess gift - which I intend to do. This recipe is a definite keeper!!!

I also find this recipe to be easy to make and delicious. A few alterations: I added 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon to the batter to replace the ground ginger. I added 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon in the topping along with the nutmeg,and 1/3 cup chopped pecans for a little extra crunch.
I agree with the other reviewers that addition baking time was needed. It took 48 minutes to completely bake the buckle. I checked with a toothpick after the recommended 35 minutes and the batter was still wet so I baked another 13 minutes and the cake was done.
The next time I will try doubling the topping recipe.

I thought this was delicious after I made it the second time and used a little vanilla sugar instead of the ginger.I don't know if it's just me and my friends but we saw no use for the ginger in this recipe it gave it a bad taste and yes I'm sure I measured correctly, but I will say this is the first time ever that i switched up one of Altons recipes I love his recipes and watch the show religiously and never have a bad thing to say about him.

My mom and I saw this episode the other day and I immediately went to the store and bought all the ingredients! Let me tell you...this buckle lasted a day and a half...literally! My Dad asked me to make this for his Thanksgiving party and I remembered I had frozen huckleberries from Alaska I brought home with me. So I made two one for his party and the second I mixed huckleberries and blueberries! The house smells delish! I watch Alton Brown every night....he has the best recipes!!

This is the best blueberry recipe I've ever tried!!! So much so that after many years I was finally inspired to write my very first review! Only adjustments I made were to add pecans to the topping and to extend the baking time as many others have noted. My only question is: Has anyone tried assembling this the night before, refrigerating overnight, and then baking it in the morning?
