Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9-inch square baking pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tsp baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt.
Step 2: In a large bowl, whisk 3/4 cup granulated sugar with 2 large eggs until light and fluffy. Slowly whisk in 1/2 cup whole milk, 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter, and 1 tsp vanilla extract.
Step 3: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries.
Step 4: Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
Step 5: In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, and 1/3 cup sliced almonds. Sprinkle this streusel mixture evenly over the batter.
Step 6: Bake for 40-45 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the streusel topping is golden and crunchy. Cool for 15 minutes before slicing.
