This will be a short post today. I only have time for a quickie.
Oh, shuddup. I don’t have time for immature giggles.
Fine. I do. I always have time for immature giggles.
Quickie. Heh.
The thing is, my mother and grandmother are coming over today and I’m feeling the need to banish some dustbunnies from existence. Also, my bathroom mirror is so coated in toothpaste that you truly can’t even see yourself.
Don’t even ask me about the floor around the toilet. This is a food blog. Trust me when I say that you don’t even want to know.
Fine, I’ll give you a hint. I live with boys. ‘Nuff said.
Anyway, today I have a recipe for blackberry buckle. It’s a favorite of mine. It’s sort of cakey and biscuity at the same time. And, oh my word, is it ever simple. Seriously, you can whip this up in no time.
Not in the mood for blackberry buckle? How about blackberry cobbler?
This one won first prize in a cobbler competition once. I won a set of mini pie dishes. I was so excited until I received my prize. I expected my pie dishes to be 3 or 4 inches in diameter…you know, personal sized pie dishes. No. They were 1 inch in diameter and only useful for laughing at.
Ah, well. The buckle and the cobbler taste good regardless of any lame prize received.

The blackberry buckle looks great, but that oreo spread has done me in!

I can’t believe I’ve never made a buckle before! I’ll have to give it a try and use up all my berries in the fridge.

I live with 1/2 a boy (roommate’s boyfriend) and yes…our bathroom has definitely gone south since he “moved in”. I don’t know how he does it. but there is toothpaste EVERYWHERE. at least he has good aim though.
yay cake and pudding all in one! See, quickies can definitely be fun. when they involve blackberries and ice cream on top.
CherylK says
They both look delicious, actually. Your quickie post is a good one! I don’t have any blackberries but I do have frozen blueberries and raspberries. I wonder how a combo would work?
Elsi says
Your timing is exquisite. The farmer’s market had blackberries on special yesterday for 88 cents each. (6 oz. containers) I adore blackberries and picked up a couple of packages — and immediately went online to find a basic buckle recipe. Thanks for sharing. My blackberry buckle is in the oven right now. I don’t think mine will look quite as gorgeous as yours, but it’s going to taste wonderful.
Jessica says
Blackberries are my favorite. So happy they aren’t in season, or I’d be stuffin’ my face right now! Looks absolutely FABULOUS!
Clare says
I too live with boys. Even the cat is male. I imagine my house is in a similar state! Cx
Natalie says
I just bought blackberries yesterday. *destiny*

Averie @ Averie Cooks says
Thanks for explaining why a buckle is called a buckle (vs. a cobbler). Never knew the difference and now I get it. This looks fabulous!

This looks SOOO yummy! I can’t wait until our berries are looking a little fresher this summer!
Cassie says
Beautiful! I was just looking at some buckle recipes. The blackberries are perfect!
