This rustic and easy-to-make blackberry cobbler is a beloved dessert that highlights the sweetness of fresh blackberries with a buttery, golden crust. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate treat!


Ingredients

  • 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar, divided
  • 1 cup self-rising flour (or substitute, see below)
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen blackberries

Substitute for Self-Rising Flour:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Melt the Butter:
    Place the stick of butter in a 9×13-inch baking dish or a similar-sized oven-safe pan. Put the dish in the oven to melt the butter while the oven is preheating.
  3. Mix the Batter:
    In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup of the sugar and the self-rising flour (or substitute). Slowly pour in the milk and whisk until smooth.
  4. Prepare the Dish:
    Once the butter has melted, carefully remove the dish from the oven. Pour the batter over the melted butter without stirring.
  5. Add the Blackberries:
    Evenly distribute the blackberries over the batter. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar over the top.
  6. Bake:
    Bake the cobbler in the preheated oven for 50–60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  7. Cool and Serve:
    Let the cobbler cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Tips for the Best Cobbler

  • Frozen Blackberries: If using frozen berries, there’s no need to thaw them before adding to the dish.
  • Sugar Level: Adjust the sugar depending on the sweetness of your berries.
  • Other Fruits: Substitute blackberries with blueberries, raspberries, or peaches for a different twist.
