Important Message from Mia

Hi there! I just wanted to let you know about my very first book, "Rustic Modern Cuisine". After having spent more than 2 years creating the content for this book, I am now raising the capital necessary to self-publish it through the highly reputable "crowd funding" site, Kickstarter.com (enables discounted pre-ordering)...but I need YOUR support now! Not only do I think you'll LOVE this book, but I think it would make a great gift for all your "foodie" friends and family - and I have every intention of getting this published, printed, and delivered to YOU just in time for the Holiday Season! Please take a moment to visit my full project by clicking here - and don't forget to spread the word to others whom you think may be interested. Thanks for your support! - Mia

Blueberry Cinnamon Crumb Cake


Cake:
1 1/4 cup cake flour
2 cups fresh blueberries
1 cup powdered sugar/icing sugar or stevia (natural sweetener)
8 tablespoons butter, room temperature
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 lemon, zest
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Sift flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt into a large bowl. Beat butter and powdered sugar on high speed until light and creamy (about 5 minutes). On low speed, add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add lemon zest, yogurt, and vanilla. Add flour to the batter to just combine. Fold in blueberries. Spoon batter into a prepared 9" by 9" round cake pan.

Crumb:
1 cup dark brown sugar
8 tablespoons butter
1 cup cake flour
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1 teaspoon nutmeg

In a food processor, pulse butter, flour, sugar, almonds, and nutmeg until it starts to resemble crumbs. Scatter over the top of the cake.

Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean when inserted into center.

Remove from the oven. Leave in the pan to cool completely before serving.
