Iron Skillet Blackberry Cobbler image

Butter piecrust gets crunchy on bottom and edges of cast iron skillet, with dough pieces in layers with the berries and sugar. Found this in Southern Living a number of years ago, but I don't have the man's name to give him credit. You can use peaches or blueberries as well, blackberries are just my favorite. I have given up picking my own blackberries so now harass the people at the farmer's market until they get some. Frozen fruit works nicely, too. You must use a cast iron skillet!! If you don't have one, go buy one and season it well...it's a kitchen necessity!

This cobbler was a disaster. The topping was dry and crumbly, and the berries were mushy. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I won't be making this recipe again.

This cobbler is a little too sweet for my taste, but it's still a good recipe. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of blackberries, but I really enjoyed this cobbler. The lemon and sugar help to balance out the tartness of the berries.

This cobbler is so delicious, it's hard to believe it's also healthy. The oat flour and honey make it a guilt-free treat.

I love that this cobbler can be made with fresh or frozen blackberries. It's a great way to use up any extra berries I have on hand.

The biscuit topping on this cobbler is amazing! It's so light and fluffy, and it pairs perfectly with the blackberries.

This recipe is so easy to follow, even for a beginner baker like me. The cobbler turned out great, and I'm definitely going to make it again.

I've made this cobbler several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of sweet blackberries and tangy lemon is irresistible.

This cobbler was a hit! The blackberries were juicy and sweet, and the biscuit topping was perfectly golden brown and flaky. I served it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and it was the perfect summer dessert.
