Add the dry mixture and water alternately to beaten mixture, beating on low speed after each addition until combined. Toss frozen berries with the 1 tablespoon flour and fold into molasses mixture. Pour batter into prepared baking dish.
2. Bake 50 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Remove from pan. Cool 20 minutes more. Serve with Pudding Sauce and additional berries. Makes 9 servings.
