Blueberry Pie Coffee Cake Recipe with Flaky Crumble

Easy Blueberry Pie Coffee Cake is moist and tender, finished with a cinnamon brown sugar topping and a simple powdered sugar glaze. A single can of blueberry pie filling gives this coffee cake a sweet, fruity center that makes it perfect for breakfast or an afternoon snack alongside a cup of coffee.

The gooey filling and soft cake make slices irresistible. This recipe is straightforward and doesn’t require a mixer — everything comes together in one large bowl.

This recipe yields about 12 servings, making it ideal for brunches, potlucks, or feeding a house full of hungry people. The batter is a basic combination of all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, eggs, vegetable oil, and a touch of orange juice for brightness.

How To Make Easy Blueberry Pie Coffee Cake

1. Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl, then add the eggs, oil, and orange juice and stir until combined.
2. Spread half the batter into the bottom of a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
3. Spread the blueberry pie filling evenly over the batter.
4. Drop spoonfuls of the remaining batter over the filling, trying to cover it as much as possible.
5. Sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon over the top.
6. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 35 to 45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean of wet batter.
7. Whisk together powdered sugar and milk to make a glaze. Once the cake has cooled for 5–10 minutes, drizzle the glaze over the top.

Recipe Tips

You can prepare parts of this recipe the night before to save time in the morning. Combine the dry ingredients and store them covered, and mix the brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl ahead of time.

Feel free to swap the blueberry pie filling for another flavor if you prefer. Apple, peach, or cherry pie filling all make tasty alternatives.

Storage

Store leftovers in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 days. Reheat individual slices briefly in the microwave before serving.
