This juicy blackberry cobbler bakes up with a golden, tender topping and a rich, jammy fruit layer underneath. It’s the perfect way to enjoy fresh or frozen blackberries — easy to make and even better served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Preheat the oven to 350ºF (175ºC, no fan). Grease a 9x12-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and 1 cup sugar. Add the milk and melted butter, and whisk until smooth.
In a separate bowl, toss the blackberries with lemon juice. Spread them evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Pour the batter over the berries. It doesn't need to be perfectly even — the batter will spread as it bakes. Sprinkle the top with 2 tablespoons sugar.
Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbling around the edges. If the top is browning too quickly, tent loosely with foil during the last 10–15 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
Notes
Storage & reheating: Once cooled, cover and refrigerate for up to 3–4 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave or warm in the oven at 325ºF until heated through.
