Ingredients:

Cake:

2 cups Bisquick or any other biscuit mix

2 cups flour

3 eggs

1 cup sugar

1 tsp vanilla

1 cup sour cream

1/2 stick melted margarine

1 cup milk

Berry Topping:

2 cups mixed fresh or frozen berries (or use a can of berry pie filling and skip ingredients and cooking instructions)

1 teaspoon brown sugar

1 tablespoon sugar

2 tablespoons of water

1 teaspoon of corn starch

Crumb topping:

1 tablespoon melted butter or margarine

1 tablespoon flour

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 cup instant oatmeal (if desired)

Instructions:

Step 1. Fruit Topping:

Place the fruit into a small saucepan and cook until bubbly. Add the water and corn starch and cook until thickened.  Let cool while the cake bakes.

Step 2. Cake:

In a large mixing bowl, beat sugar and eggs for 1 minute until foamy. Add the remaining ingredients except topping and mix on low for 2 minutes minutes. The batter will be slightly lumpy. Grease a medium size deep baking pan approximately 13×9. Pour the batter into the pan.

Step 3. Crumb Topping:

Mix topping ingredients in a small bowl. Blend with a fork until it forms a crumbly like texture.

Sprinkle the berry topping evenly spread over the batter. Top with the cake with the crumb topping.

Bake:

Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes until lightly golden brown and tooth pick comes out clean.

Serve hot or cold. Enjoy!
