Ohhh yes 🍇🥧 Blackberry Cobbler—juicy, sweet-tart blackberries topped with a golden, tender biscuit or cake-like topping. It’s perfect warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Here’s a classic, easy recipe:
🫐 Blackberry Cobbler
Ingredients (serves 6–8)
Filling
- 4 cups fresh or frozen blackberries
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste for tartness)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp cornstarch (for thickening)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Topping
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat oven
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Grease a 9×9-inch baking dish lightly.
2️⃣ Prepare filling
- In a bowl, combine blackberries, sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla.
- Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish.
3️⃣ Make topping
- In another bowl, mix flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in melted butter, milk, and vanilla until just combined. The batter will be thick.
4️⃣ Assemble cobbler
- Spoon topping over blackberry mixture. Don’t worry about covering all the berries—some can peek through for a rustic look.
5️⃣ Bake
- Bake 35–40 minutes, until topping is golden brown and filling is bubbly.
6️⃣ Serve
- Let cobbler cool 10–15 minutes.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a drizzle of cream.
Pro Tips
- Juicy berries: if using frozen berries, thaw slightly and drain excess liquid.
- Extra sweetness: sprinkle a little sugar on top before baking for a crisp finish.
- Texture variation: for a cake-like topping, add 1 egg to the topping mixture.
- Make-ahead: can be assembled in advance and baked just before serving.
🔥 Variations
- 🍓 Mixed Berry Cobbler: use blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries
- 🍏 Blackberry-Apple Cobbler: add 1–2 chopped apples to filling
- 🥥 Coconut Topping: sprinkle shredded coconut on top for tropical flair
- 🍫 Chocolate Drizzle: drizzle melted chocolate over warm cobbler before serving
I can also give a “super gooey, deep-dish blackberry cobbler” version with extra sauce and buttery biscuit topping that’s insanely indulgent 😏.
Do you want me to do that?
