Coconut Oil Blueberry Buckle

A buckle consists of fruit and cake baked together, with a streusel topping. Think of it as a halfway between a cake and a fruit cake crisp, that’s why the texture and richness is very appealing. And there’s no other fruit better than blueberries if you’re planning to make your first buckle. For someone that is really into baking, this one’s a must-try!
