Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.

Sift together 2 cups of the flour, 1⁄2 cup of the sugar, the baking powder, and the salt. Cut 5 tablespoons of the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture is crumbly. Mix the egg and milk, and then add it to the flour mixture, stirring slowly, then beat until well blended. Spread the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle the berries evenly over the top.

For the streusel topping, combine the remaining1⁄4 cup flour and 1⁄2 cup sugar, and then cut the remaining 3 tablespoons butter into the mixture until crumbly. Sprinkle this over the berries. Bake until a toothpick or skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Serve warm.

Use an electric fan to quickly clean your picked berries. Set up the fan outdoors and place a large container in front of and below it. Slowly pour the berries from above the fan so they fall through the moving air and into the container. Leaves and debris will be blown away.
