Yummy Breakfast Recipe
Little Boy Blue Breakfast Cake2 cups flour
1 ½ cups sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2/3 cup butter
1 cup milk
2 eggs
1 cup blueberries
¼ cup sugar
¾ tsp. cinnamon
Heat oven to 350*. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, butter, milk and eggs, blend with mixer on low speed until all dry ingredients are moist then beat batter for 3 minutes on med. speed. Pour batter into greased baking pan (9x13 or 9 inch round). Arrange blueberries on top of batter. Mix sugar and cinnamon together and sprinkle on top of blueberries & batter.
Bake for 40-15 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm.
Cost breakdown: Flour 16 cents ($1.48/lb), Sugar 28 cents ($1.69/lb), baking powder & salt & cinnamon (I don’t have figures for these- lets say 5 cents), butter 64 cents, milk 18 cents, eggs 17 cents (99 cents/doz), blueberries (ack! I can’t find my figures- these were handpicked and frozen from last summer- lets say 75 cents).
Total Cost: $2.23
We love making this in a 9 inch round stoneware pan (Pampered Chef) and cutting it into thick wedges. This is Maiden’s recipe (from her cookbook Marmee’s Kitchen Primer by Martha Greene) since she is the one who makes it most often. It is one of her daddy’s favorites and so it has become family tradition to serve it on Father’s Day and his birthday for breakfast. We find the cake to be very filling on its own but to round out the meal you would add bowls of fresh cut fruit.

10:03 AM, 2008-Jun-10 .. Posted by YPAmy5Amy Jo- That's a great idea. Maiden and I make this cake and pair it with my brother's favorite coffee for his birthday each year. He loves it and looks forward to it and I love that I don't have to hunt for a birthday present!

The Wagner Clan
My Husband (DH)-Mr. Steady
My rock and biggest supporter. The glue that keeps the family sane. He is like deep, deep water- it takes a lot to see a ripple.
DD11- Our Maiden in Waiting- By the world's standard she's a 'tween'. By ours and the Lord's- this is the time of her years of preparation. She is eagerly learning what it means to keep a home and daily becomes more and more of a helper to her Mama.
DD8- Sassafras My Sassy middle child. She holds her own so sweetly and has such an empathetic heart. While real Sassafras is used for flavoring- She is that added spice of flavor to our family.
DS4- Mr. Conductor- The train aficionado in the family. He likes to think he's in charge and often is! He's also the biggest Oreo fiend in the family.
