Peaches and Blackberry Coffee Cake

I decided to try making a coffee cake from the Bisquick Healthy Heart. Can I tell you a secret? I grew up with a mom who used Bisquick. That was the base at our house for both biscuits and pancakes. My favorite hands down was the coffee cake. I confess that it is still on hand for those quick cooking needs.

I have been enjoying all the bounty of fresh fruit and decided to incorporate peaches and blackberries into a coffee cake. I decided to try it using Bisquick. In all honesty the first one did not turn out, the peaches were too juicy and it did not rise enough. It was back to the drawing board.

The second time was the charm. I took this to a staff meeting and the way it quickly left the plate, I am pretty sure they liked it.
