BLACKBERRY COBBLER



Blackberry Cobbler image

After moving to Oklahoma in 2002, I discovered an abundance of wild blackberries growing on our farm. Channeling my best Martha Stewart, I decided I had to pick these berries myself and prepare the perfect blackberry cobbler for my family. (This is also where I learned about the abundance of chiggers in Oklahoma, something we call red bugs in Georgia. They apparently love to feast on unsuspecting berry pickers.) After talking a couple of my girlfriends into going blackberry picking with me, I had an ample supply of beautiful blackberries. When I called my mom, the goddess of all things culinary, to ask for Grandma Paulk's blackberry cobbler recipe, I got the familiar reply: "Well, actually there is no real recipe." Ahhh! My notes from that day go something like this: Berries in water, Sugar, Bring to a boil, Flour, Shortening, Milk. You get the picture. The cobbler actually came out great, and I was proud of my handpicked berries, but truth be told, it was the first and last time I picked the berries wild. Store-bought berries at your local grocery or farmer's market are usually plumper and sweeter than wild berries. If you use wild berries, you will probably need to add more sugar. The last time I made this, I didn't have time to make homemade pastry, so I tried store-bought refrigerated roll-out pastry shells and cut them into strips. It worked great!

Time 50m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup sugar
2 cups plus 1 tablespoon self-rising flour
2 cups fresh blackberries
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, cold, cut into small pieces, plus more for greasing
1/2 to 2/3 cup milk
Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Butter a 1-quart casserole dish or baking pan.
  • In a medium saucepan combine the sugar, 1 tablespoon of the flour, berries and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 2 minutes, then remove from the heat and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, use a pastry blender or two knives to cut the butter into the remaining 2 cups flour. Stir in just enough milk to make a soft dough that pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Turn the dough out on a lightly-floured board and pat into a square. Use a rolling pin to roll it to 1/2-inch thick. Cut the dough into 2-inch-wide strips.
  • Pour 1 cup of the blackberry mixture into the bottom of the pan. Arrange half of the dough strips on top of the blackberry mix, placing them close together. Bake until brown, about 12 minutes, then remove from the oven and pour the remaining berry mixture over the baked strips. Arrange another layer of dough strips on top and bake until brown, about 15 minutes. Serve warm with ice cream.

Alabama has some tasty fresh blackberries. Decades ago, my mama was heading out to pick blackberries to make a cobbler, but she ended up going to the hospital to have me instead. This is her mama's recipe. The blackberries start on top, but then end up tucked under a golden brown crust after it's baked. -Lisa Allen, Joppa, Alabama

MEME'S BLACKBERRY COBBLER

This delicious cobbler recipe is courtesy of Virginia Willis and can be found in her cookbook, "Bon Appetit, Y'all."

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
4 cups fresh blackberries
1 cup sugar, plus more for sprinkling
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
Pinch of fine sea salt
1 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Whipped cream, creme fraiche, or ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Melt butter in a large cast-iron skillet or ovenproof baking dish, in the oven, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place blackberries in a large bowl. Using a potato masher, mash blackberries to release their juices. If blackberries are tart, sprinkle with sugar.
  • In another large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add 1 cup sugar, milk, and vanilla extract; mix until well combined. Remove skillet from oven and add melted butter to flour mixture; stir to combine. Pour mixture into skillet and pour blackberries and their juices into the center.
  • Transfer skillet to oven and bake until top is golden brown and a cake tester inserted into the batter comes out clean, about 1 hour. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature with whipped cream, creme fraiche, or ice cream.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of berries. This will give your cobbler a more complex flavor. Some good choices include blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the cobbler tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
  • Don't overcook the cobbler. The cobbler is done when the crust is golden brown and the berries are bubbling.
  • Serve the cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. This is the perfect way to enjoy a summer dessert.

Conclusion:

Blackberry cobbler is a classic summer dessert that is easy to make and always a hit with a crowd. With its sweet and tangy filling and flaky crust, it's the perfect way to enjoy fresh blackberries. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy dessert, give this blackberry cobbler recipe a try.
