This easy-to-follow recipe is a lovely finish to any meal. Seasonal fresh blueberries are best, and complimented beautifully with the bright flavor of orange.

Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan.
In a bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt with a whisk. Set aside.
In a mixer, cream together the butter, sugar, and True Orange until light and fluffy.
Add eggs and vanilla and beat until well blended. With the mixer on low, add 1/3 of the flour mixture followed by 1/2 of the buttermilk, 1/3 of the flour, the remaining buttermilk, and then the remaining flour mixture just until incorporated.
With a rubber spatula, gently fold in the blueberries and pour the mixture into the prepared pan.
Add all crumb ingredients to a bowl and mash with a fork or pastry cutter until small crumb forms. Sprinkle mixture over prepared cake and place in oven.
Bake for 50-60 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
