Whole Wheat Berry Cobbler

Relish yourself with a delightful and healthy summer treat made with whole wheat and berries, a perfect choice for a breakfast or a dessert…!

Its berry season and a wonderful time to bake delicious desserts with these colorful fruits which are a pleasure to your eyes and taste. A cobbler to me is the right start… Cake crust with fruits; Yummm, my favorite kind of dessert!

I had previously uploaded a Peach cobbler recipe, but this is a different preparation as the berries are naturally sweet.

Another twist I have tried to introduce is replacing flour with wheat flour, which results in a denser dish… perfect for a quick filling.

This whole wheat berry cobbler is the right combination of sweet and sour flavour. You can either use a mix of different berries or even pick just one, whichever suits your choice and taste. The berry mix on the base is crusted with a cake mix and sprinkled with sugar on top… overall… Delicious…!!!

And to serve, make it a combo with Vanilla ice cream… a picture perfect summer dessert …!!!
