according to the recipe, a buckle is an old-fashioned, single-layer cake with a streusel-type topping. the batter is quite dense. as the cake bakes, the batter sinks to the bottom of the pan, which makes the streusel buckle on top. in other words, a coffee cake. it in fact tastes much like an apple coffee cake, but with blueberries instead, like one giant blueberry muffin. |
