- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs

- 1/3 cup brown sugar

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking pan or line with parchment paper.

- Gently fold in the blueberries. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
- To make the streusel, combine flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cut in cold butter until crumbly. Sprinkle evenly over the batter.

- Cool for 10–15 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- If using frozen blueberries, toss them in a tablespoon of flour to prevent sinking.
