Found some serviceberries up in the mountains of Utah last August, and used them to make a delicious cobbler!

I posted this back then, but the post got deleted when the other community mysteriously dissappeared.

Here's some more pics!

Very cool. I love serviceberries but never had enough for more than a snack.

There were tons along the trail I was walking. Got really lucky!

Funny enough, I was actually looking for thimbleberries up there originally, but saw so many serviceberries that I had to come back to get some. I did eventually find the thimbleberries as well, but there wasn't nearly enough to do anything with them besides eat the berries.

Woah what a nice and big find! Bet that cake was good! ๐Ÿ˜‹

It was really good! I ended up freezing a few pieces and enjoying it again a few weeks later

Hell yeah :) Never tried those berries before, what do they taste like?

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They taste like blueberries, pretty much! Only blueberries won't grow in Utah and serviceberries will. So it's a welcome substitute!

What a weird name though. Did you thank them for their service?
