Streusel Topped Blueberry Cake

Ingredients

3 Tablespoons shortening

1 cup granulated sugar

1 egg

1-3/4 cups sifted flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup milk

1-1/2 cups fresh blueberries (or 1 can, drained)

Crumb Topping:

1/2 cup flour

1/2 cup sugar

2 Tablespoons soft margarine

1 teaspoon cinnamon

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cream shortening with 1 cup sugar; beat in the egg. Sift 1-3/4 cups flour, baking powder, and salt together. Add dry ingredients to shortening and sugar mixture alternately with milk. Sprinkle washed and drained blueberries with a little flour to keep them from sinking, then stir into the batter. Pour batter into greased and lightly floured pan 11 x 7 inches in size. Mix together ingredients for crumb topping until crumbly. Sprinkle batter with crumb topping. Bake in 350-degree oven until cake tests done, about 40 minutes.
