Description

Fresh blackberry cobbler baked in a cast iron skillet and smothered in vanilla ice cream. Delicious!

Ingredients

  • 1-½ cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1 cup Sugar, Divided
  • 1-½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 9 Tablespoons Cold Butter, Cut In Cubes
  • ⅓ cups Boiling Water
  • 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
  • ¼ cups Cold Water
  • 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • 4 cups Fresh Blackberries

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

For the dough, mix the flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl. Cut in the butter until you have a coarse, crumbly mixture. Pour in the boiling water and stir together well so that all of the dough is wet. Set aside.

For the berries, dissolve the cornstarch in the cold water in a medium bowl. Add the lemon juice, berries, and remaining sugar. Mix together well. Transfer berries to a 10-inch cast iron pan.

Heat mixture over medium heat until boiling, stirring frequently. Remove from heat.

Drop spoonfuls of dough over the berry mixture and place the cast iron pan on a foil-lined cookie sheet and place in the oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the dough is golden brown and the berries are thick and bubbly.

(If you don’t have a cast iron pan, bring to a boil in a sauce pan and bake in a 9×9 baking dish.)

Yummy! My grandsons and I picked blackberries yesterday afternoon and made this cobbler. So good! They had whipped cream and I had Blue Bell homemade vanilla on mine.

This was delicious! I used half whole wheat flour and half regular (because I am half healthy-lol). I loved the way the crust smelled as it was baking mmmm… I also doubled the cinnamon, because I just love it! So delicious w/home made vanilla ice cream. This recipe is a keeper!

I didn’t have a cast iron pan so I made it in a loaf pan (halved the recipe) — I had blackberries, blueberries & a couple strawberries to use up. I used splenda in place of the sugar. LOVED THIS RECIPE. topped it with a tiny bit of ginger ice cream. delicious!

My sister & I made this for breakfast – what a treat! Dad was also VERY impressed.

“You need to use this recipe,” he said.

We have our orders! My sister reduced the amount of sugar in the topping & used whole wheat flour. Also, we used frozen blackberries & maple syrup for the fruit filling. Excellent recipe.

Made a double batch, used a pan that was deeper than the typical 8 X 13 and it did not over flow but it got close. The crust browned up beautifully in thirty minutes. Cooking the berries before hand let me judge how thick I wanted it and I could adjust the sweetness depending on the berries. I added a quarter cup of pure maple syrup and it was perfect. The dough is very wet and soft when you make it but it bakes up fluffy and perfect. 5 mitts, for sure, and I will use this for most of the other 4 gallons of blackberries I picked this year. :)

I loved this! I used small casserole dish and the topping was thick and soft like a jelly doughnut. Berry yummy!

We have also used blueberries in place of blackberries with great results. I think my dad prefers it to blueberry pie! Excellent recipe.
