Can I use frozen blueberries instead of fresh ones for this Buttermilk Blueberry Breakfast Cake?

Absolutely! Frozen blueberries work just as well as fresh ones in this recipe. Simply thaw and drain them before folding them into the batter to prevent excess moisture.

What can I substitute for buttermilk if I don’t have any on hand?

In case you don’t have buttermilk available, you can easily prepare a homemade alternative by mixing 1/2 cup of milk with 1/2 tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice. Allow the mixture to rest for 5 minutes prior to incorporating it into the recipe.

How should I store leftover Buttermilk Blueberry Breakfast Cake?

To keep your cake fresh, store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you need to store it longer, you can refrigerate it for up to a week or freeze it for up to 3 months.
