Jam, Jelly and Preserves were made but I always froze some so that I could make cobblers even in winter. I usually use the simple recipe of 1 cup flour, 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of milk. Mix these together and pour in a pan that has 1 stick of melted butter or margarine. Cover the flour mixture with sweetened berries and bake for about 40-50 min. in a 350 degree oven. The flour mixture will raise to cover the berries and this is delicious hot out of the oven with ice cream on top. I often reduce the melted butter to 3/4 cup and it doesn't affect the yumminess!<br />Connie<br />cps1950(at)gmail(dot)comConnie Porter Saundershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09234596850866029756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549640562097540413.post-3657847107185766552017-02-22T01:18:36.729-08:002017-02-22T01:18:36.729-08:00To be honest, pies, plain and simple, are usually ...To be honest, pies, plain and simple, are usually my favorite!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11848352366206709447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549640562097540413.post-41318088190621942692017-02-22T01:18:00.967-08:002017-02-22T01:18:00.967-08:00Thanks, Liwen!Thanks, Liwen!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11848352366206709447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549640562097540413.post-39604877329467553242017-02-22T01:17:41.189-08:002017-02-22T01:17:41.189-08:00Let me know if you try it.

I made pies and cobblers, nothing as fancy as the treats you've talked about.Merrilleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08617320163408645299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4549640562097540413.post-66526942879317169652017-02-21T14:39:18.653-08:002017-02-21T14:39:18.653-08:00These look delicious, Milou!

But I used to live in Oregon where they grew like weeds. We had a huge blackberry bush we couldn't even keep trimmed in our backyard at one house. Yum! You could find places out in the woods or off the road and just load up on baskets of blackberries. The same with blueberries and raspberries. I miss that! Melanie D.
