Double Berry Cake


This recipe is similar to my cobbler recipe and is a delicious summer-time treat, especially when served with Cool Whip or vanilla ice-cream. Adding 2 T. Cool Whip Free to each piece will not add any additional points.  In addition, if you decide to cut the pan into 12 pieces instead of 9, then the points value will decrease by 2. I made this recipe using Xylitol, a natural sweetener. If you opt to use all sugar, the points value will increase by 2. You can also substitute with any berries you like.

Serves 9 ( 5 points +)

  • 1 c. fresh raspberries
  • 1 c. fresh blackberries 
  • 1-1/2 c. flour
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 3 T. canola oil
  • 2 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1 c. Xylitol or sugar
  • 1 c. skim milk


Topping

  • 1 T. cornstarch
  • 1/4 c. sugar
  • 1 c. boiling water


Place berries in an 8 inch square baking dish coated with nonstick spray.
Mix flour with the next 7 ingredients ( through milk). Spread over berries.

In a small bowl, combine sugar, cornstarch and boiling water. Mix well. Pour over dough. Bake for 45-55 minutes or until browned on top.
