Blackberry Cobbler
Blackberry Cobbler combines fresh blackberries tossed with lemon juice and sugar, topped with a crumbly biscuit mixture of flour, sugars, salt, egg, and melted butter. The cobbler bakes to a golden brown, bubbly dessert with a balance of sweet and tart flavors and a crisp, sugary topping. It pairs well with ice cream or whipped cream, making it an inviting treat during blackberry season.
Ingredients
- 5 cups blackberry rinsed and drained, fresh
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar divided, plus 2 tablespoons
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar (light brown sugar is okay too)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg lightly beaten
- 6 tablespoons butter melted, unsalted
- Ice cream for serving (optional, or freshly whipped cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Place blackberries in a lightly greased, shallow 1-quart baking dish. Sprinkle with lemon juice and 2 tablespoons sugar, then toss to coat; set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix together remaining sugar, flour, brown sugar and salt.
- Stir in the egg until the mixture resembles a coarse meal.
- Sprinkle the biscuit mixture over the berries, then drizzle the butter evenly over the cobbler.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, until golden brown and bubbly. Allow to stand at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving with ice cream or freshly whipped cream, if desired.
Notes
- Store leftover cobbler at room temperature wrapped tightly for 3-4 days.
- Refrigeration is possible but may cause the topping to become soggy.
- Freezing is not recommended as it alters the dry, crumbly texture of the topping.
