Whenever our grocery store has a big sale on berries, we stock up. Which is great - who doesn't love fresh berries? - but really puts pressure on me to use them up quickly. Last month we got several containers of blackberries that I tried to use up fast. I ended up making this breakfast bar recipe from Smitten Kitchen, subbing raspberries for blackberries. I also used about a cup of buckwheat flour in place of most of the white flour (I had that on hand from a CSA box from a month or two previously). I think the buckwheat flour has a different cooking quality than white flour, because I cooked these as indicated and they seemed underdone. The flavor was really nice, though, and it was good to find a recipe to use up lots of blackberries all at once. I love the flavor of blackberries, really hate the size and texture of them for some reason.
