Move over, Strawberry Shortcake

Gracious yet understated (and largely under-appreciated), juicy blackberries are again gracing the fresh produce stands.

Blackberries, known for their antioxidant qualities and high Vitamin C content, are also fantastically low in glycemic load, index, and carbs.

The shortcake medium? An simple, gluten-free, low-carb cake batter using my new favorite sweetener, stevia (no worries, Splenda fans! I have something for you, too!).

Though not Atkins Induction friendly, due to the addition of fruit, this recipe is easy, quick, and sure to delight on sweltering summer days.

Keep reading for this delicious recipe!
