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.

Stacey, i have always been confused, is there a difference between blackberries and black raspberries?

Yes! Black raspberries are much smaller and a bit more flavorful, I think. But, I love blackberries because the have less seeds- and amke a lot of juice.
