huckleberry buckle

From here. Quite tasty, especially with ice cream.

Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup white sugar (a bit less)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 1/2 cups huckleberries
  • sugar (recipe called for 3/4; I used canned huckleberries with about 1/3 c in them and it was sweet enough)
  • 1/2 cup boiling water
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C.) Grease the bottom of a 9 inch square pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream 1/4 cup butter and 1/2 cup sugar. In a separate small bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Stir into butter mixture. Stir in milk; mixture will be thick and lumpy. Spread batter into the prepared pan.
  3. In a large bowl, combine berries, 1/3-3/4 c sugar and 1/2 cup boiling water. Pour over the batter in the pan. Dot the top with remaining 1 tablespoon of butter.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes.
