Ingredients

- ½ cup (1 stick) butter, softened
- ¾ cup sugar
- ½ cup milk
- 1 egg
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (a great place to sneak in a little whole wheat flour, I used ½ cup)

- In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt.
- Add to butter mixture and mix just until combined. The batter will be very thick.
- Carefully fold in blueberries.

- For the crumble topping:
- Combine all topping ingredients in food processor or use a fork/fingers to combine until crumbles (large and small) form.
