Ingredients

• cooking spray
• 2 (12 oz.) bags frozen mixed berries, thawed (about 6 cups)
• 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 orange, zest finely grated (about 2 tsp.)
• For the topping:
• 1/4 cup whole-wheat flour
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. sugar, divided
• 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/4 tsp. baking soda
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 2 Tbsp. chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
• 1/3 cup low-fat buttermilk
• 2 Tbsp. canola oil

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Coat an 8 × 8 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, toss the berries with whole wheat flour, sugar and zest. Transfer the berry mixture to the baking dish and set aside.
3. In a medium bowl whisk together the whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, 2 Tbsp. sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cut in the butter using 2 knives or a pastry cutter until many small pebble-sized pieces are formed.
4. In a small bowl or pitcher, whisk together the buttermilk and oil. Add the buttermilk-oil mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until just moistened. Do not over mix. Drop the batter onto the fruit forming 6 mounds. Sprinkle with the remaining teaspoon of sugar. Bake for 30 minutes, until fruit is bubbly and top is golden. Let stand for at least 10 minutes before serving.
