    This was an amazing cake! The only problem I had was with the crumble. When I mixed the ingredients it wasn't as crumbly as in the video. It was much smoother because of which it was a lot more in volume and hence a good part of it did not set on the cake after baking. Maybe it needs more butter or less flour. The cake was still absolutely delicious!!

    This is the first Ina recipe I ever made and it turned out terrific. My tip is that I use frozen blueberries in the cake mix - they don't split or bleed if frozen. (I also do the same with blueberry muffins. Thanks everyone for your comments and tips, I find them very useful.

    Wonderful crumb cake! Moist, delicious. I have made it twice now. The first time exactly as written except that I baked it in a 9" springform pan to make extracting it easier--it worked great! The second time I added a little more lemon zest and, this might sound crazy but, doubled the crumb topping. We have an old family recipe for a crumb cake that has almost equal parts cake to crumb topping that everyone just loves so I tried it with this cake--it was awesome! If you tend the enjoy the crumbs best try it!

    This was absolutely delicious! I made it a few months ago exactly as the recipe is written and it was great, but I felt the crumbs were a little overdone. I just made this again last night, didn't have blueberries so I omitted them. I also baked the cake for 20 minutes, then added the crumb topping, then baked another 20 minutes. The texture of the crumbs was absolutely perfect! Everyone gobbled it up!

    So yummy!!! I love it's simplicity too! I didn't have sour cream so I used Greek yorgurt instead and it was delicious. Fresh blueberries cost a lot in Hawaii so frozen blueberries worked in my favor. My husband absolutely loves this cake! Thanks Ina!

    Absolutely delicious, everyone in the entire family enjoyed this dessert. I used frozen blueberries because I got more for my buck versus fresh! I had about a cup of blueberries left so I decided to make a blueberry-lemon simple syrup to go over top (1cup sugar, 1 cup blueberries, 1/4 cup of lemon juice and water. So glad I decided to make it! I just love Ina!

    FINALLY, I have found a recipe that tastes as good as it looks! I made this for my husband who LOVES blueberry crumb cake. Whenever I have tried before, the crumbs never come out right. I know have a crumb recipe for EVERYTHING now. With this recipe, everything was PERFECT!

    I was out of unsalted butter so I used regular salted butter, and my teenage son used all the sour cream so I used vanilla yogurt instead......DELICIOUS!

    Definitely a KEEPER!!

    Blessings!
