Sweet, juicy blackberries bubbling beneath a golden, buttery, cake-like topping with a lightly crisp, sugary crust. This homemade blackberry cobbler is the kind of old-fashioned dessert that tastes like a warm hug! Serve it fresh from the oven with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. ❤️
Ingredients:
For the blackberry filling:
- 4 cups fresh or frozen blackberries
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the cobbler topping:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¾ cup milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tbsp sugar, for sprinkling
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a bowl, gently toss the blackberries with sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla. Set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the milk until just combined.
- Pour the melted butter into a 9-inch square baking dish.
- Spread the batter evenly over the melted butter. Do not stir.
- Spoon the blackberry mixture evenly over the batter. Sprinkle the top with a tablespoon of sugar.
