    Martha Stewert


    Serves 9; Prep Time: 20 minutes; Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes



    Streusel Topping:
    1 cup flour

    1/2 cup light-brown sugar

    1/4 teaspoon salt

    1 stick (8 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

    Cake:
    1 1/2 cups flour plus 1 teaspoon

    1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

    1/2 teaspoon baking soda

    1/4 teaspoon salt

    1/4 teaspoon allspice

    4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more for pan

    3/4 cup sugar

    1 egg

    2/3 cup buttermilk

    1 1/2 cups blueberries

    Confectioners� sugar, for dusting

    1. Preheat oven to 350�. Butter and flour a 9-inch square baking pan. Make the topping: In a medium bowl, stir together flour, brown sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter using your hands or a pastry blender until large, moist crumbs form. Chill.

    2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and allspice. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add egg; beat well. Add flour mixture and buttermilk alternately until just combined. (Batter will be very stiff.) In a large bowl, toss the blueberries with 1 teaspoon flour. Fold blueberries into the batter; spoon into prepared pan.

    3. Sprinkle cake with streusel topping. Bake until golden brown and a tester comes out clean, 45-50 minutes. Let cool completely. Dust with confectioners� sugar before cutting into squares.
