All you need is a single bowl, whisk, and your best pint of blueberries, of course, to make this shockingly simple blueberry “muffin” cake. Each ingredient is added to the bowl in strategic order to guarantee a moist, tender crumb as well as easy cleanup. A touch of cinnamon brings warmth while the store-bought granola grants the cake a satisfyingly crunchy topping with no added effort. Love even more crunch? Go for the granola with larger clusters. We’d skip the varieties with added fruit to avoid a dry, potentially tooth-breaking experience.
