3/4 cup milk
2 heaping cups of blackberries (fresh or frozen)

Topping Ingredients

1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup softened butter
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Method

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2. In another bowl, beat eggs until frothy. (We use an electric mixer for this.) Mix in oil and milk.
3. Pour milk mixture into dry ingredients and stir. Gently fold in blackberries.
4. Pour batter into a greased 9-inch square baking dish or an 8x11-inch baking dish*.
5. Mix topping ingredients together (should be coarse crumbs/lumps of topping) and sprinkle over batter.
6. Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes, until cake tests done in the middle. Cover cake loosely with foil if the top starts browning too quickly (I usually place foil over the cake after about 45-50 minutes).
