Ingredients
- Cooking spray
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole-wheat pastry flour or regular whole-wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup plain nonfat yogurt
- 1 cup fresh blueberries, or frozen and thawed
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch square cake pan with cooking spray.
Whisk together the all-purpose and whole-wheat flours, the baking soda and salt. In a small bowl, stir together the granulated sugar, cinnamon and walnuts. In a large bowl, beat the brown sugar, butter and oil until fluffy. If necessary, use the back of a spoon to press out any lumps in the brown sugar. Beat in the eggs, 1 at a time, beating until fully combined. Beat in the vanilla and yogurt.
Add the flour mixture in 2 batches, stirring until just combined.
Spread half of the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle half of the nut mixture over the batter and top with the blueberries, gently pressing them into the batter. Spoon the rest of the batter into the pan, smoothing the top. Sprinkle the remaining nut mixture over the cake, pressing gently. Bake until a wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool slightly and then unmold and allow to cool completely on a cooling rack. Cut the cake into 2-inch squares.

This coffee cake was very good, although you can certainly tell that it is a healthful product--there's nothing wrong with that, but I wouldn't pass it off as a traditional coffee cake. It is just barely sweet enough--if you like your sweets sweet, bump up the brown sugar by a 1/4 cup. Also, the batter is Super sticky and hard to spread, so when you do the second layer, drop it by heaping spoonfuls all over the pan to minimize the amount of spreading you have to do. The "Loads of Blueberries Coffee Cake" recipe on this site is also very good, healthful and easier to make than this one. I will probably stick with that recipe when I've got blueberries to bake!

Very tasty and moist! I used mixed frozen berries, which is what I had at hand, and that worked very well.

Amazingly fluffy. I think if I toast the pecans first will make the cake taste better.
Kinda of dry the next day.
