6 cups fresh blackberries
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons cornstarch
¼ cup cold butter, cubed
4 cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 cup chilled butter, diced

Steps:

HOMEMADE KENTUCKY BLACKBERRY COBBLER RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Homemade Kentucky Blackberry Cobbler Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by mzander

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 1/2 cups fresh blackberries, washed
1 cup sugar
1 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 stick unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • First you should take care of the blackberry and sugar mixture because it needs to sit for a while. Stir together just the berries and sugar in a large bowl and let it sit out for 25 to 30 minutes. This will coax out the juices of the blackberries so that they can be sweetened up by the sugar, and we can taste the full spectrum of the fruit-this process is called macerating. After about 20 minutes, you should turn on the oven to about 375ºF and start preparing your batter. Stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and milk with a wooden spoon. Next, stir in the melted butter and hand-mix it until the ingredients are well incorporated and you have few clumps. Pick out a clean baking dish, a smaller one will do, like a 9x9-inch pan, pour in the batter and smooth it out. You can choose to line it with parchment paper or not, but don't grease the pan (there is enough butter in there already!). Finally, pour the macerated blackberries on top with all the sugar included and evenly distribute it over the batter. Bake this promising pan of happiness in the oven for 45 minutes to an hour, depending on how golden you prefer it to be. Let it set up for a good 15 minutes so it will hold its shape. It will be bubbling like crazy and quite hot, so be careful! This hour goes a little like this: you can hear it bubbling through the vent behind the stove, you can smell the buttery dough caramelizing with the sugar, and you can see the dotted crown of blackberries creating that quintessential golden cobbler crust. It is a marvel to have in your oven, let me tell you!

Tips:

  • Use fresh blackberries. Fresh blackberries have the best flavor and texture for cobbler. If you can't find fresh blackberries, you can use frozen blackberries, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the cobbler tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a deep dish baking dish. A deep dish baking dish will prevent the cobbler from boiling over.
  • Bake the cobbler until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. This will take about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Let the cobbler cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the crust to crisp up.

Conclusion:

Kentucky blackberry cobbler is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tangy filling and flaky crust, this cobbler is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make dessert, give Kentucky blackberry cobbler a try. You won't be disappointed!
