Berry crumble might seem like the perfect dessert to make in the summer months when berries are plentiful and cheap. You can certainly do that. And I recommend checking out Costco for the most affordable berries. But it’s also a recipe you can make all year long and use frozen berries. Any combination of berries will do for this recipe.
This recipe comes from The Best Cast Iron Baking Book by Roxanne Wyss and Kathy Moore. In the book, you’ll find recipes for breads, cobblers, pies, cakes, biscuits and more. The book explains why cast iron baking is so beneficial: it gives the food more flavor, reaches higher temperatures and is naturally nonstick. There are more than 80 recipes in the book, and most of the recipes have photos. This is a handy cookbook to have on your cookbook shelf if you have a cast iron pan in the house!
Here are a few recipes in the book that I most definitely want to make:
