How To Make huckleberry buckle ( or cobbler cake)

  • 1
    Turn oven on to 375. Grease bottom only of a 9" square pan with butter-flavored crisco. (My 9" pan has somehow "walked", so this last time I had to use my 2 1/2 quart deep round baking dish. It worked pretty well. Just had to add 5 minutes to the baking time.) In a large mixer bowl, cream 1/4 cup batter and 1/2 cup sugar. In small bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, salt and spices to mix. Slowly beat into butter mixture just til added. Stir in milk and vanilla til just mixed. *Batter will be thick and lumpy. Spread batter into the prepared pan. In large bowl, combine berries and 3/4 cup sugar. Pour boiling water over and fold lightly til mixed. Pour evenly over the batter in the pan. Dot top with 1 Tbl. butter pieces. Bake 45-50 minutes. Serve warm with vanilla bean ice cream! SO GOOD!!! :D
