There weren’t any ripe summertime blueberries or sweet corn flavor swirled into that cake – like in here – for the added oomph Dad deserves.Īnd simple to enough to whip up … first some topping to chill. I finally bought her cookbook (don’t know what took me so long) and knew, after flipping through the book, that this cake would remind my husband of the old days in New York that were filled with crumb cake to go with coffee in those blue and white paper coffee cups and plastic white lids (anyone remember those? do they still have those?).

I adapted the recipe to gluten, dairy, and soy free (and egg free for the muffins) from Deb Perelman’s the Smitten Kitchen Cookbook, the blogger behind Smitten Kitchen.

I mean, c’mon it has blueberries in every bite and is so moist and full of sweet buttery charm similar to a corn cake you would find down South. All that stuff I mentioned includes being a Dad to our older ones (including a teenager!), which makes him a rock star.Īctually anyone would love this. Fortunately, hubby of mine is dedicated to giving his all to his family.
Phew, it’s a handful and I couldn’t do it alone. There are supplements to give, therapies to schedule around his work schedule, blood tests to take them to, school stuff to help them with, teaching them to ride a bike (so proud), to swim (proud of this too), and other generalized skills (lots of them with steady progress). Just to get a little personal here: caring for our twin boys with special needs is not easy. So, as much as I don’t encourage this type of “breakfast” it is Father’s Day weekend so let’s make Dad some kick-ass sweet cornmeal cake studded with fresh blueberries and a crumb-cake-like topping to go with his coffee, for old times sake. Not much fun, but I do want to keep him around a long time. That was before we married and my heckling him about eating a healthier breakfast like oatmeal or avocado on toast. My husband loves a good piece of cake with his coffee for breakfast. His breakfast-of-choice for many years, pretty much every morning.
