Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 4 cup blackberries fresh or frozen (do not thaw if frozen)
  • 0.75 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice fresh
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1.25 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar (topping) for biscuit topping
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.75 cup whole milk
  • 4 tablespoon unsalted butter melted and cooled
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place a 10- or 12-inch ovenproof skillet in the oven while it preheats.
  • In a medium bowl, toss the blackberries with 0.75 cup sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch until evenly coated. Let sit for 5 minutes to macerate.
  • Carefully remove the hot skillet from the oven and add the blackberry mixture, spreading it into an even layer.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, 0.25 cup sugar (for topping), baking powder, and salt. Stir in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla until just combined to form a thick batter.
  • Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit batter over the blackberries, spacing them slightly; the batter will spread as it bakes.
  • Bake uncovered for 22 to 28 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the biscuit portion comes out clean.
  • Allow the cobbler to cool for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.

Notes

Serve warm with vanilla ice cream. Leftovers keep refrigerated for up to 3 days; reheat briefly before serving.
