This easy Blackberry Cobbler recipe from The Pioneer Woman takes just 5 ingredients and 10 minutes to prepare.
It’s got a sweet, juicy filling and a crisp golden crust!
Ingredients:
21 oz can of blackberry filling (Feel free to substitute with fresh blackberries if available)
1½ cups of flour
⅓ cup brown sugar
⅓ cup sugar
1½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
½ cup butter, cubed into small pieces (ensure it’s cold for the best texture)
⅓ cup boiling water
1 tbsp coarse sugar (for that delightful crunch on top)
Instructions:
Preheat Oven & Prep Pan: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl
combine 1½ cups flour
⅓ cup brown sugar
⅓ cup sugar
1½ tsp baking powder
and ½ tsp salt.
Stir these together until they are well mixed.
Add Butter:
Introduce the cubed butter to the dry mixture.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, blend the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. This step is crucial for creating a flaky topping that’s absolutely divine.
Boil & Mix: Pour ⅓ cup of boiling water into the mixture and stir until everything is just combined.
The dough should be moist but not overly wet.
Layer the Filling: Spread the blackberry filling evenly at the bottom of your prepared baking dish.
If you’re using fresh blackberries, you might want to sprinkle a little sugar over them to enhance their natural sweetness.
Top It Off:
Spoon the dough over the blackberry filling, spreading it gently (it’s okay if it’s not perfectly even).
Sprinkle the tablespoon of coarse sugar over the dough for a sparkling finish.
Bake:
Place your cobbler in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Enjoy!
