Blackberry Cobbler (Cobbler de Moras)
Ingredients:
For the filling:
4 cups fresh blackberries (or frozen, thawed and drained)
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
For the topping:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, gently toss the blackberries with 1 cup of sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest (if using), and 1/4 cup of flour. Ensure the blackberries are well coated. Transfer the blackberry mixture to a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
Make the Topping: In another bowl, combine 1 cup of flour, 1 cup of sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Assemble the Cobbler: Pour the batter evenly over the blackberry mixture in the baking dish. The batter will spread as it bakes, creating a beautiful, golden crust.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Enjoy this delicious Blackberry Cobbler, a perfect dessert to showcase the sweet and tart flavors of blackberries!
