Here’s a simple and delicious Blackberry Cobbler recipe for you to try:
Ingredients:
- For the blackberries:
- 4 cups fresh blackberries (or frozen, thawed)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp cornstarch (optional, for thicker filling)
- For the cobbler topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the Blackberries: In a mixing bowl, gently combine the blackberries, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch (if using). Set aside for about 10 minutes to allow the berries to release some of their juices.
- Make the Batter: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract, and stir until just combined.
- Assemble the Cobbler: Pour the blackberry mixture into a greased 9×9-inch baking dish or a similar-sized cast-iron skillet. Drop spoonfuls of the batter on top of the blackberries, trying to cover most of the surface but leaving some gaps for the juices to bubble through.
- Bake: Place the cobbler in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the blackberry juices are bubbling.
- Cool and Serve: Let the cobbler cool for about 10 minutes before serving. It’s delicious on its own or served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
