Blueberry Buckle

-
I found a bag of blueberries in the back of the freezer this morning from last summer. So I decided to use them up and made blueberry buckle. I doubled this recipe and put it in a 9 x 13 pan and had to bake it a bit longer.

Here is the regular recipe:

Blueberry Buckle

1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg, well-beaten
2 cups flour
2 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup milk
2 cups blueberries
Cinnamon crumble

Cinnamon Crumble
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 cup butter

First cream the margarine and sugar together.

Stir in well-beaten egg.
Photobucket

Sift together dry ingredients.

Then add dry ingredients and milk, alternating between the two and stirring well.
Photobucket

Your batter will look like this when you are done.
Photobucket

Transfer into a well greased 11 1/2 x 7 x 1 1/2-inch pan. (Remember, I doubled the recipe that's why I have the bigger pan.
Photobucket

Sprinkle the blueberries over the top of the batter.
Photobucket

Mix the sugar, flour, and cinnamon for the cinnamon crumble together and then cut in the butter until you have fine crumbles. Sprinkle on top.
Photobucket

Bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes. Cut in squares. Serve warm. Makes 8-10 servings.

Enjoy!

    Oh, yummy, yummy, yummy. I love blueberries. Can't wait until they're in season again--you were really lucky to find that bag in your freezer. I bet that was a nice surprise!

    Terri, that looks so good! I love it when you show the steps of how to make something.

    I have what is probably a silly question. Can I use frozen blueberries- like not ones I picked fresh and froze but frozen from the freezer section?

    Leah, I would certainly think so. Just thaw them out first and drain any juice off.

Today is my sixty-second birthday and it's hard to believe I've achieved that....um....seasoned age! My first thought this morning was one of not being sure that I like it. However,  as I thought I about it, I decided to take joy in the fact that I've reached an older age. Because age comes with benefits. Benefit #1 - I'm a bit wiser.   When I look back at some of the decisions I made when I was younger, I cringe. With age has come the ability to slow down and think things through before I make major upheavals in my life. I've also discovered that getting worked up about certain things is just an absolute waste of emotional energy. Benefit #2 - I'm enjoying my life.   As I've aged I've learned all kinds of skills and hobbies and can honestly say that I'm never, ever bored. I love all the different things I'm able to do and it's fun! Benefit #3 - I've learned to appreciate my relationships. With age I've learned to work on developing a...

Eating to Live

  Despite the unexpected busyness and interruptions, I have been plugging away at my weight loss as well as writing the plant-based, whole food cookbook. Recipe testing fell by the wayside the past two weeks, but I've still gotten a good chunk of the book done. I also got on the scale this morning for another one pound loss which makes a total of 61 lbs. since I started this journey back in July. It's second nature at this point and I have so much more energy and feel healthy. The only negative is that because I've lost so much weight I'm seeing some sagging, crepe-papery skin happening. Yuck. Some of that is age and I need to figure out some toning exercises. It's definitely a life-style change, but a positive one which I'm so thankful I started on. The pictures above are a small selection of meals I've eaten the past two months and many of those will be included in the book.  This will be a printable e-book as I find that will be the easiest and most cost ...

When the Unexpected Pops Up

On Thursday afternoon, just as Dan and I were getting ready to leave for a meeting, we received a phone call from our son. He was sitting on the side of the road with a blown engine in his car. The problem is he lives 3 1/2 hours away. After back and forth phone calls he called a tow truck and got it towed to a garage. He ended up renting a car and headed here for the holiday. We've been working with him to figure out his next steps because he still owes thousands of dollars on the car which will also take a significant amount to replace the engine. His rent is going up in the new year. His seasonal job ended and he is trying to find something else, but needs a car for that to happen. His car still has not been looked at by the mechanic. It is all more than a little overwhelming. Long story short, we extended an invitation for him to live here temporarily so he can get out from under all of this. It would save him money on expensive rent and utilities.  The timing was right since h...
