If you follow me on Facebook (www.facebook.com/GFAFRecipes), you know that we went on a blueberry picking expedition yesterday and came home with bags full of blueberries. So, this morning, it was only natural to make a blueberry coffee cake for breakfast. This recipe was modified from a recipe in Southern Living. I hope you like it!

Blueberry Coffee Cake:

2/3 c. milk  or nondairy milk
1/2 c. sour cream or nondairy sour cream
