This late into summer we have so many fresh veggies and fruit coming in season. Right now some of my very favorites are at their peak. Sweet corn, tomatoes, peaches and blackberries! I can’t seem to get enough. Try this recipe for blackberry buttermilk coffee cake to fulfill your berry cravings!

Blackberry Buttermilk Coffee Cake

2 cups All Purpose Flour
2 cups Brown Sugar
1/2 cup softened butter
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1 Egg
1 c. Buttermilk
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 cup Fresh Blackberries

Combine the flour, butter and brown sugar. Mix well with an electric hand mixer, until all ingredients are incorporated. Reserve 1 cup of the crumbs for the topping. Add the remaining ingredients (except berries) to the batter, and mix until smooth. Pour into greased 9×9 pan. Sprinkle berries over the top of the cake batter.

Then, sprinkle the crumb mixture over the top of the berries.

Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the middle of the cake. If it comes at clean, the cake is done. Serve warm.
