My inspiration for these Blueberry Coffee Cake Bites came from Target (my favorite store). As I was strolling along their bakery section, I came across mini coffee cake bites and was instantly hooked. The flavor, the texture, the taste, the coffee cake in MINI form! How fun would these be to recreate?!

Ok, so now I have to get another pan because these have GOT to happen!! They are adorable and how could I possibly resist mini food? It’s not that I eat less, it’s just they are so much more fun to eat!! Plus, they put a smile on my face just looking at ’em! I love coffee cake and this one with blueberries? Yes, please! I have a bunch of berries in my freezer and this would be a perfect use for them. Pinned, of course. Happy Monday, my friend! Have a great week 🙂

Cheyanne @ No Spoon Necessary says
STAAAP IT, Gayle!! These mini bites are just too freggin’ cute to handle! Not to mention, over the top delicious!!!! I’m obsessed with all things coffee cake, and if there is a cinnamon crumble (or streusel) involved I just can’t be stopped. Needless to say, I could devour a few dozen of these blueberry bad boys in about 3 seconds! Seriously, these look incredible! Side note, my husband likes this boxed variety of mini crumb muffins. I’m soooo going to make him these blueberry coffee cake bites and blow his mind. Plus hopefully these will get him to put the boxed crap down. Lol. PINNED! Cheers!! <3
Gayle says
Doesn’t streusel just make everything better? I’m with your husband…I love those mini crumb muffins, too! Thanks for the kind words and pin, friend!

Jenny says
Can this be made minis the blue berries. Will it still taste delicious.
Gayle says
Hi Jenny! It can certainly be made without the blueberries. I’m assuming it will still taste the same, though I haven’t tried it without the fruit.
Judith Laurence says
Where in this recipe did you add blueberries? Thank you
Gayle says
Sorry about that, Judith! I updated the recipe directions to include when to add the blueberries. You would add it after the flour is mixed in. Thanks for letting me know and hope you enjoy these!
