VEGAN BLUEBERRY BUCKLE

If there’s one thing I get asked to make repeatedly, its blueberry buckle. I definitely don’t complain though because it’s hands down one of my favorite things to make. My mom used to make this for me growing up (in our meat and dairy eating house), so naturally I had to make a vegan version since we adopted our new diet about 6 months ago. If you missed our “Making the Switch” post, you can read it {HERE}. The Cheney house is a sad place when blueberries are not in season.
