Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups (600g) mulberries, fresh or frozen (if frozen, do not thaw before baking)
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour for topping
  • 2 tablespoons (15g) all-purpose flour for dusting berries
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (115g) cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) milk or buttermilk, room temperature
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 pint (470ml) vanilla bean ice cream
  • Optional: lemon zest from 1 lemon
  • Optional: brown sugar (to swap half the granulated sugar in topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, toss mulberries with 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, lemon juice, and lemon zest if using. Stir gently and set aside for 10 minutes to macerate.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and sugar (include brown sugar if using). Cut in cold butter with a pastry cutter or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Pour in milk or buttermilk and stir just until combined to form a thick but spreadable batter.
  5. Pour mulberry mixture with juices into a greased 9-inch baking dish. Dollop topping over fruit and gently spread with spatula, allowing gaps for fruit to peek through.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes until topping is golden brown and fruit is bubbling. Tent with foil if topping browns too quickly.
  7. Cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes to thicken juices.
  8. Serve warm with generous scoops of vanilla bean ice cream.

Notes

Use frozen mulberries straight from the freezer to avoid soggy topping. Cold butter is key for a flaky topping. Do not overmix the batter to keep it tender. Dust berries with flour to thicken juices and prevent sogginess. Optional coarse sugar sprinkled on top before baking adds extra crispness. Substitutions available for gluten-free and dairy-free versions.
