Description
A straightforward recipe for a warm blackberry cobbler with a biscuit topping.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups fresh or frozen blackberries
- 1 cup granulated sugar (adjust to berry sweetness)
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, combine the blackberries, 1 cup sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Mix gently. Pour the berry mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a small bowl, mix the milk and the beaten egg. Add this liquid mixture to the dry ingredients and stir just until combined to form a thick batter. Do not overmix.
- Drop spoonfuls of the batter over the top of the blackberry filling, leaving small gaps between the dollops.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- If using frozen blackberries, do not thaw them before mixing with the sugar and cornstarch.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
