Got it?
It's blue and yellow!!!
Or at least I think that was what happened to my blueberry crumble cake. I must have streak the blueberries into the yellow batter unknowingly, resulting in one area of the cake looking rather greenish. Too bad for the appearance though because I really like this cake! It was moist-the way a cake should be.
I saw this recipe featured on Fresh from the Oven sometime back and saved it in my recipes folder. I used frozen blueberries as the fresh ones are really expensive-but still love the bite in the blueberries in the cake. Certainly one that is a keeper..... except the green streaks!

You could serve it in candle light. >_<
That really looks delicious! I love everything with crumbles topping.
The green is not that visible to me, the crumble looks great. I want one slice, gimmeeeee :D
oh this is perfect with my capuccino :-)! yum
that's interesting, didn't know that mixing blueberries with the batter will turn into green color. But I think color doesn't matter at all, as long as the cake tastes good, agree? ;-)
hey daphne, I am glad you like the cake. The green that you mentioned is not obvious! Anyway, it's the taste that counts. I find the original recipe slightly too sweet because of all the crumbles. But the Americans love it though.
I love the crumble topping too! Btw, I can hardly see the green.
Blueberries!!!
