Blackberry Buckle Coffeecake

My mom brought me a gallon size bag of huge blackberries!

They were begging to be made into something yummy.

And Preston loves him some baked goods...

We chose a Blueberry Buckle Coffeecake out of my "Iowa Master Farm Homemakers" cookbook.

You know the recipes are good when they come from a bunch of farm wives!

I made a few changes to the original recipe and we love how it turned out.

BlackBerry Buckle Coffeecake

1/2 cup butter (I used 1/2 cup homemade applesauce)

3/4 cup sugar

1 egg

2 cups flour

2 1/2 t baking powder

1/2 cup milk

2 cups fresh blackberries (or any type of berries)

1/4 cup turbanado sugar (or just sugar)

Grease bottom and sides of 9 inch pan.

Beat together butter (or applesauce) and 3/4 cup sugar until fluffy.

Add egg and beat well.

Mix 2 cups flour with baking powder, stir in alternately with milk.

Beat until smooth.

Spoon into prepared pan.

Sprinkle with berries.

Sprinkle with sugar.

Bake at 350 for 45-50 minutes.
