Ingredients
  

Filling
  • 4 cups fresh or frozen blackberries Use fresh when in season for brightest flavor.
  • 1 cup sugar Toss half with berries.
Batter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk Whole milk makes it richer, but any milk will work.
  • 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter Use unsalted butter to control salt.
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp extra sugar For sprinkling on top.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.
  2. Toss the blackberries with half the sugar in a bowl and set them aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Add the milk, vanilla, and melted butter to the dry mix and stir until the batter is smooth.
Baking
  1. Pour the batter into the greased dish and spread it evenly.
  2. Spoon the sugared blackberries over the batter without stirring.
  3. Sprinkle the extra sugar across the top.
  4. Bake for 40–45 minutes until the top is golden and bubbling.
  5. Let the cobbler rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use frozen berries straight from the freezer for a time-saver. Tent the dish with foil if the top browns too fast. Stir in lemon zest or a splash of bourbon for added flavor.
