Buckle: A Classic Blueberry Dessert

  • ¼ cup (50ml) shortening
  • ½ cup (125ml) sugar or Splenda
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ teaspoon (1ml) salt
  • 1 teaspoon (5ml) baking powder
  • 1/3 cup (75ml) milk
  • 1 cup (250ml) all purpose flour

Cream the shortening and sugar, then add the egg. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt, and then add it to the mixture (alternating with adding the milk).

Spread the mix in a greased 8x8 inch pan and sprinkle 1 cup (250ml) of blueberries on top of the batter.

Then mix these ingredients together until crumbly:

  • ½ cup (125ml) sugar
  • 1/3 cup (75ml) flour
  • ½ teaspoon (2ml) cinnamon
  • ¼ cup (50ml) butter
Sprinkle the mixture evenly on top of your batter, then bake at 350 F (180C) degrees for 45 minutes (or until a test stick comes out clean).

This recipe is a decades-old favourite. Enjoy it with ice cream on a warm summer day. Or with ice cream on a cold winter's day... Do you really need an excuse? It's one of the classic blueberry dessert recipes.
