Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon to create the crumb topping. Cut in softened butter until crumbly.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together sour cream, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. In another bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to wet ingredients, stirring gently. Fold in blueberries.
  5. Pour half of the batter into the baking pan and layer a portion of blueberries on top. Add the remaining batter.
  6. Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the batter.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean.
  8. Let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes before glazing and serving.
