Ingredients
Berry Buckle
  • ¾ cup unsweetened milk of choice
  • ⅓ cup neutral flavored oil (e.g. avocado, sunflower)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 and ½ scant cups all purpose flour (can substitute up to ½ cup whole wheat)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 and ½ cups mixed fresh berries, rinsed
Streusel Topping
  • ¼ cup all purpose flour
  • ¼ cup old fashioned oats
  • ¼ cup butter or coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon granulated or brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375 and grease a square baking dish or line it with parchment paper (8x8 or 9x9 both work).
  2. In a mixing bowl, add milk, oil, egg, lemon juice and vanilla. Whisk to combine.
  3. Add flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt overtop of the wet ingredients in the order written. Using a fork, stir together the dry ingredients on top and then incorporate them into the wet ingredients.
  4. Add the batter to the baking dish, spreading it into an even layer. Pour berries overtop of the batter, pressing lightly overtop of them so they incorporate into the top of the batter.
  5. Using a fork, mash together the streusel topping ingredients. Using your fingers, sprinkle it generously overtop of the buckle.
  6. Bake the buckle for 40-45 minutes, until a knife comes out clean in the middle. Allow the buckle to cool for 30 minutes before slicing into 9 or 12 squares. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Leftover buckle can be covered and left on the counter for up to 3 days.
Any stone fruit can be substituted for the berries if pitted and cut into small pieces.
