This is a recipe I started making as a teenager for my family. It originally came from a cookbook of my Mom's. I have slightly adapted the recipe over time.
The name buckle comes from the process of the cake batter rising but the berries and topping weighing it down or causing it to "buckle".
Ontario produce season is the best time of year. Hard to not fill your fridge with all the great selection.
I decided to combine blackberries and nectarines into a crisp using the topping recipe from my Mom's Apple Crisp. Always a family favourite.
