Mixed Berry Pudding Cake is a lighter dessert that is made with fresh, juicy, and ripe seasonal berries for the perfect summer treat! It is sure to become one of your go to favorites since it is so easy to make.
I'm such a fan of berries and so glad there is an abundance in the stores right now. I love them plain and maybe tossed with some yogurt and granola for a quick breakfast but they are versatile in other recipes as well.
I've been putting them in salads - like this Triple Berry Salad with Goat Cheese, baking them in a Triple Berry Crisp and even making Crepes with berries and a lemon curd.
I don't think you can go wrong with any way you use them. Who is ready to get baking today?
