Mixed Berry Buckle Recipe
There’s nothing quite like the aroma of a warm, buttery Mixed Berry Buckle Recipe wafting from your oven. This classic dessert, a tender cake studded with juicy berries and crowned with a cinnamon-sugar streusel, is a celebration of summer in every bite. After extensive testing, I’ve perfected this version to be incredibly moist and foolproof, making it my go-to for potlucks and family gatherings.

Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup shortening
- 1 large egg
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 2 cups flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries – fresh or frozen)
- Additional shortening and flour for preparing the pan
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup butter
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a mixing bowl, cream together sugar and shortening until light and fluffy. Add the egg and mix until smooth. Then add the milk and blend well.
- In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Gently fold in the berries.
- Grease and flour a 9×9 or 8×10-inch pan. Spread the berry batter evenly into the prepared pan.
- For the topping, combine sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles crumbs. Sprinkle the topping over the batter.
- Bake at 375°F for 35-40 minutes (for an 8×10 pan) or 45-50 minutes (for a 9×9 pan), or until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Serve warm or cold, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
