Crispy 'n Buttery Blackberry Cobbler Recipe

July is National Blackberry Month, and wouldn't you know it I had fresh wild blackberries brought to my doorstep from my lovely landlords. They enjoy growing their own vegetables and fruits, and have a patch of blackberry bushes that provide them with beautifully ripe and sweet blackberries!


The last time I enjoyed fresh blackberry cobbler, my family was living in Olympia, Washington. As a kid, we'd all go get tangled up and dyed purple amongst the blackberry bushes, shoving our mouths full of delicious berries before giving any up for the empty baskets. My mom made a crispy, sweet and buttery blackberry cobbler from whatever berries made it home.

With blackberry season in full swing, blackberry cobbler makes the perfect summer dessert! After hounding Mom for tips and searching for an quick and tasty recipe online, I stumbled across the "Great Cobbler Debate Blackberry Cobbler Recipe", from ThePioneerWoman.com.

I found the simple, quick, and mouthwatering Blackberry Cobbler recipe I was looking for - and now, you have it!

Crispy 'n Buttery Blackberry Cobbler Recipe

Serves: 8 people

Prep Time: 20 Minutes

Cook Time: 1 Hour

Difficulty: Easy

• 1 stick Butter (or 1/2 cup melted butter)
• 1-¼ cup Sugar
• 1 cup Self-Rising Flour
• 1 cup Milk
• 2-3 cups Blackberries (frozen Or Fresh)

Cobbler Directions

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

Melt butter in a microwavable dish, then get started on making the batter.

Pour 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of flour into a mixing bowl, then whisk in 1 cup of milk.

Mix well.

Then, pour in melted butter and whisk it all well together.

Butter a baking dish, or spray it with cooking butter spray.

Now rinse and pat dry the blackberries.

Pour the batter into the buttered baking dish and get ready for the berries!

Sprinkle (or drop) 2-3 cups of blackberries evenly over the top of the batter.

Beautifully covered in fresh blackberries, you're ready for some sugar.

Sprinkle ¼ cup sugar over the top.

Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 1 hour, or until the top is golden and bubbly.

If you desire, sprinkle an additional teaspoon of sugar over the cobbler 10 minutes before it’s done; however, mine was glistening with sweetness, so I didn't need it.

Blackberries were laden throughout, on the bottom, in the middle and a few on top.

The crust and top layer were so crispy and buttery, and with the added sweetness of the blackberries...it's a little piece of Heaven!

Enjoy this quick and delicious Crispy 'n Buttery Blackberry Cobbler Recipe all summer long! Don't forget the whipped cream, or better yet - the vanilla ice cream scooped on top! Mmm!
