Buttermilk Blueberry Breakfast Cake

I wanted to share this recipe today since this is going to be a busy week for me and I probably won't have time to post anything again til Thursday or next Monday. 
 It was once again time to make a breakfast item to take to church. I wanted to choose something that was portable, simple, and used fresh summer  fruit.  I found a recipe and seeing that it had over 900 comments and rave reviews I decided to pick that recipe to make. I ended up making 2 cakes since I was sure 1 wouldn't enough for church and I figured that any leftovers would be taken home by the pastors.

 The first cake I made turned out having a little more color on the top and was a little dryer than the second because I added just the amount of buttermilk listed  instead of adding a tab bit more. Even though this cake is labeled as "breakfast" it's basically a cake that you can have it any time of the day since it is slightly sweet.  This cake is dense,  loaded with blueberries, has a good tang from the buttermilk, and the lemon zest lightens it up.

Lemon Blueberry Yogurt Bread

For the next two Sundays, I am in charge of bringing making breakfast for my mom's sunday school class. I wanted to do something other than pumpkin muffins and I came up with something made with blueberries. I actually found 2 recipes and made both for tomorrow.
The first, Lemon-Blueberry Yogurt Bread, is the one I decided to share with you today. The other recipe is for blueberry muffins, which came out good, but the batter could use a few changes to make them even better; so I might tweek it before sharing it with ya'll.
My dad, even enjoyed this, which I was certain he wouldn't because of the strong lemon flavor, but he ate his sample slice (he was my taste tester today) right up.
