Blueberry Coffee Cake (sort of healthy!)

Are you ever trolling pinterest when it seems like everyone you know is pinning cakes, pies, muffins, and just general diet sabotage?

Well I came across this recipe from Alexandra’s Kitchen, and something made me click on it.

To my great delight, it didn’t seem too complicated for a novice baker like myself. I thought I would modify a few things to see if I could make it slightly more healthy and it turned out great! Here’s what I did:

• 4 tbs unsalted butter and 4 tbs smart balance, room temperature
• 2 tsp. lemon zest or more — zest from 1 large lemon
• 1/2 cup sugar + 1/4 cup stevia
• 1 egg, room temperature
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 2 cups flour
• 2 tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. kosher salt
• 2 cups fresh blueberries
• ½ cup fat free buttermilk

I contemplated using egg beaters for the egg, but since it was only one I left it in. I followed the rest of the recipe as written (the assembly and baking directions) except for sprinkling sugar on top. I did have to bake mine for 45 minutes, but it turned out great!

DELISH!
