Blueberry Almond Breakfast Cake

Blueberry Almond Breakfast Cake is the perfect combination of blueberry and almond in a tender butter cake. This recipe comes together so easily with just a handful of ingredients you will find yourself whipping it up all year long. Perfect for making any time of year with fresh or frozen fruit.

Costco has had some really great looking berries this summer. I keep buying more and at some point I ended up with too many to fit in my fridge.

Well, instead of buying a new fridge (which is what I really wanted to do) I decided to whip up a simple blueberry cake.

With just a handful of ingredients this amazing simple cake came together.

The addition of almond extract in the batter and toasted almonds on top really enhance the sweet blueberries in this tender buttery cake.

The almond topping is sprinkled on before it goes into the oven, leaving nothing to do when it cools, but enjoy a slice or 3.<

This has been our most popular cake all year. I actually made 3 of these cakes before I managed to get a shot.

Mind you every time someone pops over I am sure to feed them before they leave. My friend Heather popped over and got a taste. She swears it tastes just like a coffee cake, but better.

I found myself picking at this cake every time it was on the counter top because is it sooo good.

So, I cut it up and tossed it in the freezer for safe keeping.

Then my father-in-law came by and picked up the last batch. Whew! Crisis averted. Needless to say the cake freezes perfectly and you are going to love it.

How to Freeze Eggs

Are you wondering how to freeze eggs? Whether you have too many eggs from your own chickens or you need to make the eggs you have last during "stay at home", freezing your excess is the perfect solution. Individually, in bulk or separated, freezing eggs couldn't be easier following these tips.

You can use your frozen eggs in my Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Monkey Bread, my Sun-Dried Tomato and Ricotta Frittata, or my Freezer Breakfast Burritos.

Can I freeze eggs for later use?

The short answer is yes! You can freeze them individually, separating the whites and yolks, or in bulk.

Freeze individual servings

If you want to know how to freeze whole eggs in individual servings, this is the easiest method. Simply break each one into a muffin tin sprayed with non-stick cooking spray and add 1/2 pinch of salt into each muffin spot. Then, whisk gently to combine. And, place the muffin tin in the freezer.

When you freeze an egg yolk, it will become gelatinous. Over time, this thickens the yolk so that it's very difficult to use. Adding salt to your whisked egg will prevent this from happening.

Once they're completely frozen, they can be removed from the muffin tin and placed in a freezer bag. When you need one, just remove one per serving. Freezing them separately makes it much easier to use only the amount that you need.

Freeze separated eggs

If you're wondering how to freeze eggs so that the yolk and the whites are separated, you need to follow a slightly different process. Carefully separate the yolk and the white using an egg separator.

Pour the egg white into one section of an ice cube tray. And, pour the egg yolk into another section. Be sure to add a 1/2 a pinch of salt to the yolks to keep them usable. You can then transfer each to separate freezer bags for storage.

Using this method gives you a lot more options when it comes to cooking. You can recombine them and use them in your favorite recipe. Or, you can use just the yolk or the white as you need to.

Freezing eggs in bulk

If you have quite a few eggs or you know that you want to use them to make scrambled eggs, Freezer Breakfast Burritos, in a quiche or a frittata, it will be easier to freeze them in bulk. You can whisk a dozen eggs in a large bowl and add a pinch of salt.

Then, pour the entire mixture into a large freezer bag. Don't forget to label it with the quantity and today's date so you know how many are in there.

What happens when you freeze eggs in the shell?

According to the USDA, eggs should not be frozen in their shells. When you freeze them in the shell, the shells will crack. And, the yolk becomes thick and gelatinous. This means that it cannot be used the way you would normally use an egg. If this happens unintentionally, you should throw the egg away.

Helpful tips to freeze eggs

If you choose to freeze them in bulk, remember that one-quarter cup of the whisked mixture equals one large egg.
You can add seasonings to your eggs if you know you want to use them in a certain recipe. Just be sure to label the freezer bag.
Put today's date and the number of eggs your bag contains when you freeze in bulk. This will make using them easier.
Defrost the frozen mixture in the refrigerator never on the counter.

What you need to freeze eggs

This is what you need to get started.

Non-stick muffin pan
Large mixing bowl
Whisk
egg separator
Heavy-duty freezer bags
A Sharpie marker

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to add salt?

Are you wondering how to freeze eggs without salt? If you would prefer not to add salt because you're on a sodium-restricted diet, you can add 1 1/2 teaspoons of sugar per egg yolk. If you use this method, the egg mixture might work better in a dessert rather than a savory dish. But, you can try offsetting the sugar by adding Italian seasoning or Mexican Seasoning blend.

How long will these stay good in the freezer?

The eggs should stay good in the freezer for up to a year. Just be certain that you freeze them in heavy-duty freezer bags and not traditional plastic sandwich bags. This will help protect them from freezer burn.

What recipes can I use these in?

You can use frozen eggs in almost any recipe that calls for scrambling an egg. Why not try them scrambled, in an omelet, in a quiche or when baking your favorite cake.

What should I serve with eggs?

I have quite a few recipes that you can serve including:
