The haskaps, saskatoons and the strawberries are ready for picking, with the raspberries coming along soon. Enjoy them in this easy and delicious dessert.
A simple batter, much like a crepe batter, is poured over fresh raspberries and blackberries in a butter and sugar-lined dish. Baked until bubbling, with a light golden crust and served warm with crème fraîche. So easy and so good! –Brad Smoliak
