I made this for breakfast today and it was fabulous! I substituted light sour cream for the buttermilk (same amount). It made a very thick batter and was jam-packed with fresh blueberries. No need for the flour trick since the batter was so dense. It was so good that DH and I each had to have two wedges!

I'm glad it worked for you. I don't know what I did wrong. After cooking for the time directed, it was lightly browned on top, but wet and "sweaty" inside. Not at all appetizing.

Did you use fresh or frozen blueberries?

Fresh.

Hmmm, I don't know what could have gone wrong then. Next time, try the sour cream substitution. It makes a thick batter that I promise you will not remain watery.

One last question and I'll leave you be…. was it light, like a coffee cake or really dense and damp?

In reading the reviews posted on this recipe it sounds like a disaster! Sounds and looks delicious but not all results are foolproof. I won't be making it. Enjoy yours!

It wasn't really damp, but it wasn't real cakey either. I'd say it was more dense and I think that's because it was so packed with blueberries. We really liked it, but if you want it "cakier", I might reduce the fruit a little bit and maybe use two whole eggs instead of one whole egg and one egg white.
