Equipment
- 1 9-inch round cake pan greased and floured
- 1 electric mixer
- 1 mixing bowl large
Ingredients
Filling
- 4 cups fresh blackberries
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Topping
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter cubed

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F and prepare a 9-inch round cake pan by greasing and flouring it.
- Wash and dry the blackberries. In a large mixing bowl, combine them with sugar and lemon juice. Let them sit for 15 minutes to release their juices.
- In a separate bowl, mix flour, sugar, and baking powder. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the milk until just combined.
- Pour the blackberry mixture into the prepared pan. Spoon the topping over the berries, spreading it evenly.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40 to 50 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the berry juices are bubbling.
- Remove the cobbler from the oven and allow it to cool slightly to let the juices thicken.
Serving
- Serve the cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
Storage
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven before serving.
