Blackberry Cobbler 🫐🥧🌿 Juicy, Sweet-Tart Berries With a Golden Buttery Crust

This blackberry cobbler is rustic, fruity, and baked until the berries bubble beneath a golden, tender topping.

Sweet, tart, and full of summer flavor — it’s best served warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Ingredients (Serves 8)

For the blackberry filling

  • 5 cups fresh or frozen blackberries
  • ½ cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of cinnamon (optional)

For the batter

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 cup milk (whole or 2%)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted

Optional topping

  • Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream

Step 1: Preheat oven

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Step 2: Prepare the blackberries

In a bowl, mix blackberries with sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, vanilla, and cinnamon (if using). Spread evenly in the prepared baking dish.

Step 3: Make the batter

In another bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in milk and melted butter until just combined. Batter will be thin.

Step 4: Assemble the cobbler

Pour the batter evenly over the blackberry mixture (do not stir). The batter will rise up around the fruit while baking.

Step 5: Bake

Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Step 6: Serve

Let cool slightly before serving warm with ice cream or whipped cream.

Flavor Variations

  • Add raspberries or blueberries for a mixed-berry cobbler
  • Swap vanilla for almond extract for a nutty twist
  • Sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts over the top before baking
  • Use brown sugar in the filling for deeper flavor

Pro Tips

  • If using frozen blackberries, don’t thaw them — just toss with sugar and cornstarch
  • Taste berries first; adjust sugar depending on how sweet or tart they are
  • Let the cobbler rest 10–15 minutes before serving so the filling thickens
  • Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 3 days

Final Thoughts

Blackberry Cobbler is juicy, sweet-tart, and comforting — a classic dessert that tastes like summer in every bite. Simple to make, yet always impressive when served warm with a scoop of ice cream.

Bake it. Scoop it. Enjoy the berry comfort. 🫐🥧🌿
