Do you need a delicious coffee cake to share with your mom on Mother’s Day? This Blueberry Cream Coffee Cake has four layers of goodness that goes so well with a cup of coffee.
Our children might be becoming breakfast snobs over here. Apparently I have been making too many things with chocolate for breakfast because this cake got the evil eye from a few of them. They kept asking where the chocolate cinnamon rolls were?
I think that just means more cake for me. And when that cake is a coffee cake, it becomes fair game for breakfast time. There is something so comforting about a slice of coffee cake and a big steamy mug of coffee in the morning.
Since I enjoyed this coffee cake so much, I am going to request it again for Mother’s Day. And by request it, I really mean make it again for myself to indulge on while my family does yard work for me.
Do you have any fun plans to celebrate with your mother? We usually spend the day going to church, eating lunch, and then buying new plants for the flowerbeds. After we get in as many new plants as we can, we end the day with a campfire. Maybe we will even make another pan of these toasted marshmallow cheesecake brownies to enjoy by the fire.
This coffee cake has all sorts of good stuff going on inside it. There is the bottom layer of cake which has this buttery crumb texture that just melts in your mouth. Then on top of that I alternated lines of cheesecake and blueberry pie filling, but you can swirl it together if you like.
To take the cake one step farther, you are going to cover the top of everything with a crumble topping. And because this cake doesn’t have enough sugar going on in it, a simple glaze drizzled on top finishes it off and makes it so pretty!
This is perfect for enjoying on any random weekend for sure, but I highly suggest making a pan of this for your mother. She definitely would enjoy a giant slice with her coffee while you do some chores for her.

EXACTLY what oatmeal did you use?

This looks sooooooooooo yummy, can’t wait to try it! 🙂
Toni says
Can you use fresh blueberries instead for this recipe? Would alterations need to be made? Thanks, looks yummy.
Jocelyn says
Hi, Toni. I’m not really sure since the only way I made this was with blueberry pie filling. You could use fresh blueberries to make a homemade pie filling to use.
Lydia @ Thrifty Frugal Mom says
Oh, this looks amazingly delicious! We love blueberries and coffee cake, so combining the two just makes sense.
Gentle Joy says

Cinnamon Rolls? I don’t think I’d miss the cinnamon rolls if someone served me up a piece of this delicious cake!
Erin @ Miss Scrambled Egg says
Jocelyn – Coffee cake always reminds me of Thursday Night Bible Studies at my house as a kid. Although the studies were for adults, I always was in charge of baking dessert and setting out the coffee after the meeting. I have never tried a blueberry coffee cake, but this one is glorious. For Mother’s Day, I’m taking my mother and grandfather to a wine tasting. 🙂
Jocelyn says
Being in charge of dessert and coffee sounds like such a fun job and a great way to serve. That’s awesome that you did that! And wine tasting with your mom and grandpa sounds like a fun way to spend the day together!!!
Sheryl @Lady Behind the Curtain says
Mmmm! This looks gorgeous! Blueberries are my favorite, so I’ll definitely have to try this one out 🙂
Julianne @ Beyond Frosting says
This coffee cake is pretty much perfection!
Valerie says
This looks amazing! What a beautiful creation, thanks and Happy Mother’s Day to all Moms out there!
Patty says
Hi….can this be made w/raspberry pie filling instead of blueberry pie filling? I have the raspberry pie filling on hand. Please reply. Thanks.
Jocelyn says
Hi, Patty. You can use whatever flavor of pie filling you like or have on hand. I think the raspberry sounds great 🙂

I’m with your kids. Chocolate cinnamon rolls for breakfast every day!
Though this is a close second. I’m digging ALL four layers!
Jocelyn says
Hahaha! Yes, my kids give me eye rolls unless there is chocolate involved! But hey, that’s more cake for me 😉
