My mom clipped this recipe from Real Simple ages ago and we finally decided to give it a try. We both realized that neither of us have baked with blackberries before this crumb cake. Boy-oh-boy were we missing out! It is SO good. Thankfully we made two of these lovely little crumb cakes, one for my parents to take to dinner and one to stay at the house, so I could try a piece. It is delicious! I definitely look forward to studying with a slice of this blackberry goodness and a cup of tea.
There's nothing like a little baking to take my mind off of school stress.
Also, you guys are so right, an "I break for baking" bumper sticker would be amazing. ;-)
Have a great Monday! Have you baked anything new lately?
This looks delicious. I've baked only a handful of things ever in my life but my post uni assignments resolution is to at least double that tally before the year is out so this recipe has jumped to the top of my list! Good luck with your studying...I feel your pain!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so good and very pretty :)
ReplyDeleteThat looks so yummy! Real Simple is my favorite magazine ever.
ReplyDeleteOh- it's an apron! I have some of that fabric (in the first photo), and when I saw it in the last post, I couldn't figure out whether it was a tablecloth or what. :)
ReplyDeleteThat looks really good!

That looks so yummy! I want some cake... for breakfast.
ReplyDeletethat look delicious and your nails look fabulous. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious! I've baked quite a few new things recently - a chocolate and sour cream cake with raspberries, Anzac biscuits and damper. I find that baking helps with stress - it's just concentrating on the ingredients and method, completely switched off from everything else. So calming and nice.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more: baking is such a great escape from an overloaded brain! I pulled my sourdough starter out of the fridge after months of neglect this weekend for the same reason. Baking a fresh loaf of bread sounds so appealing to me after a long week of work.
ReplyDeleteOh...and the cake looks delish! Enjoy!

Blackberries are my favourite! They're always guaranteed to make any dish even better. xx
ReplyDeleteBlackberries are so good, it seems delicious!
ReplyDeleteYou were right to have a little break with baking, it's good to have some rest from time to time! (but not to much, be carefull ^__~)
Good luck for your final exams.
Yes I have been baking too! :)
ReplyDeleteI tried my hand at baking lemon poppy seed muffins from scratch and they actually turned out great! I was so pleased.
Baking really is a nice little creative outlet, isn't it? Nice pictures of the cakes. They look really tasty.
I just ate one from Grand Central Baking Company. It is so delicious!!
ReplyDeleteThis looks great, blackberries are one of my favorites! :) xo
