  4. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture gently, then stir in 1 cup of fresh blueberries.
  5. For the streusel, mix ¼ cup coconut sugar, ½ cup almond flour, and 2 tablespoons of softened butter; work into a crumbly texture.
  6. Spread the cake batter into the prepared baking pan and sprinkle with streusel topping, pressing lightly.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely or enjoy warm.
