Rustic and Rich Kentucky Blackberry Cobbler: A Southern Delight

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups fresh blackberries, washed
  • 1 cup granulated sugar, divided
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Ice cream or whipped cream, for serving (optional)

Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine blackberries, 1/2 cup sugar, water, and lemon juice. Stir gently and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the sugar is dissolved and the berries are slightly softened. Remove from heat.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Stir in the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until just combined. The batter will be thick.
  5. Pour the batter into a greased 9-inch square baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  6. Spoon the blackberry mixture over the batter, distributing the berries evenly.
  7. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
