The simple cobbler topping is made with just a few pantry staples: all purpose flour and sugar mixed with a little baking powder, a pinch of salt, milk and melted butter…. Super simple!

How to Make Blackberry Cobbler

To make this delicious recipe, you just add your berries to an 8×8 pan. The make the cobbler topping.

In a medium mixing bowl add 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, a pinch of salt, 1 cup milk and 1/2 cup melted butter. And then whisk thee ingredients together just till well blended. Don’t beat it or over mix because that could change the texture;)

After that you’ll just pour your cobbler batter over the berries and bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for an hour… Till its golden on top and and bubble on the sides.

Let your blackberry cobbler rest on a wire rack or cutting board for 10 minutes to cool. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream on top!

That’s all there is to it… This is a super simple recipe that easy enough for the very beginner baker to easily impress anyone!

Berry Variations

This Berry Cobbler can be made with any, or a combination, of the following:

• Raspberries
• Strawberries

Storing Blackberry Cobbler

Short-Term Storage

For optimal freshness, store your cobbler at room temperature, covered loosely with plastic wrap, for up to 3 days. This will help maintain the cobbler’s texture and flavor.

Longer-Term Storage

If you have leftovers beyond 3 days, transfer the cobbler to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to a week. While the cobbler will still be enjoyable, the topping might lose some of its crispiness.

Freezing Blackberry Cobbler

For longer storage, you can freeze your cobbler. Let it cool completely before wrapping it tightly in plastic wrap and then aluminum foil. Place it in the freezer for up to 3 months. When ready to enjoy, thaw overnight in the refrigerator and reheat in a preheated oven at 350°F until warmed through.

Note: The texture might change slightly after freezing and thawing, but the delicious berry filling will still shine through.

Notes

Berry Variations: This cobbler recipe would defiantly go great with different berry combinations! Blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and strawberries all work well.

Topping Twists: For a crunchier topping, add a handful of chopped pecan or walnuts to the top of the prepper cobbler before baking.

Ice Cream Pairings: This cobbler is particularly delicious served with vanilla ice cream, but it also pairs well with other flavors like cutter pecan, chocolate chip cookie dough or salted caramel.

Make Ahead! You can prepare the berry filling up to a day in advance for added convenience. Just store in the fridge till you're ready to bake. The berries will bleed into the batter a bit more this way, but it will still be delicious!

Gluten-Free Option: You can make a gluten-free version of this blackberry cobbler, by using a gluten-free flour blend for the cobbler batter;)
