This blackberry cobbler recipe is easy and crowd pleasing! A golden fluffy topping covers a sweet and jammy berry layer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh blackberries* (1 pound)
  • 3/4 cup plus 1/3 cup granulated sugar, divided, plus more for topping
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • Zest of 1/2 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup-all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 6 tablespoons salted butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Combine berries with 1/3 cup granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, lemon juice, and cinnamon in the pan in a 9 x 9″ or 7 x 11″ medium baking dish.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder and kosher salt; stir in the melted butter, milk and vanilla and mix batter until smooth. Let stand 1 minute for the batter to thicken.
  4. Pour the batter over the filling, smoothing it to the edges. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons granulated sugar on the top. 
  5. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, until golden brown and set. Cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. Cut individual pieces and serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Stores up to 3 days refrigerated; reheat in a 350°F oven until room temperature or warm before serving.

Notes

*You can swap in frozen blackberries if you like: no need to thaw! Since they’re typically not as sweet as frozen berries, use at least 1/2 cup granulated sugar in the filling (add more to taste if desired).
