The church I have attended since I was a little girl has many women parishioners who all have their own cobbler recipes. But everyone agrees that this recipe from a wonderful older lady is the best.

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 13

4-5 c fresh or frozen blackberries
1 c softened butter
1-1/2 c sugar
2 tsp vanilla
1 c milk
2 Tbsp lemon juice
2 c sifted flour
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1 c sugar
2 Tbsp cornstarch
3/4 c boiling water
whipped cream and lemon peel curls for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 375. Lightly spray a 9" x 13" baking pan w/ cooking spray. In a large bowl, cream the butter, 1-1/2 cups sugar, vanilla, lemon juice, milk and salt until well blended.
  • 2. Stir in flour until just blended. Spoon blackberries into bottom of pan. Pour or spoon batter over berries. With a rubber spatula gently spread batter to cover berries.
  • 3. In another bowl whisk together remaining sugar and the cornstarch. Sprinkle evenly over top of batter. Pour boiling water over cornstarch mix, evenly. Gently stir it up a bit. Bake for 40 minutes or until top is crispy looking, ( don't worry, the inside will be nice and soft.) I make my own whipped cream for this, which I top the cobbler slices with along w/ a sprinkling of lemon peel curls for garnish.

This cobbler is a great make-ahead dessert. I often make it the night before and then bake it the next day.

This cobbler was a hit with my family! The blackberries were perfectly tart and juicy, and the cobbler crust was golden brown and flaky. I will definitely be making this again.
