"A combination of the best cobbler recipes I have made. This adaptation is the simplest and tastiest yet."

 

• Ready In: 1hr 5mins
• Ingredients: 10
• Serves: 16

ingredients

• 5 cups fresh clean blackberries
• 2 tablespoons triple sec (orange liqueur) or 2 tablespoons Grand Marnier
• 2 cups sugar
• 4 teaspoons cornstarch
• 2 cups flour
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt

directions

1. Preheat oven to 375.
2. In a large bowl stir together; berries, liqueur, sugar and corn starch.
3. Let sit while you make the batter.
4. In an ungreased 11x15" pan stir together well; flour, baking powder, salt, milk, vanilla, melted butter.
5. Spread to cover bottom of pan evenly.
6. Carefully spoon berry mixture over the batter to cover all.
7. Bake for 45 minutes to one hour depending on glass or metal pan.
8. I prefer glass as you can see the color of the batter as it cooks.
9. Berries should be bubbling and bottom should look golden brown when done.
10. Closer to 45-50 minutes for glass, 50-60 for metal.
11. Place on a cooling rack for one hour.
12. Serve warm with ice cream or cold with whipped cream.

I was surprised this was not too sweet. It was perfect. Even my dessert resistant husband approved. It's a keeper.

A very delicious cobbler - the only thing that caused a problem for me was the ungreased pan. It really had to be scraped out of the glass pan - it stuck badly. But it was yummy indeed with a scoop of homemade vanilla!

This recipe has great flavor. Although I did encounter a problem with the consistency, I do believe it was a measuring error on my part. A great way to use up all those blackberries the kids bring home!

This was oh so good. I was a little leary of the Triple Sec but the berries tasted wonderful. The topping was a nice buttery biscuit like topping. Perfect with some vanilla ice cream. This will definitely be my blackberry cobbler recipe from now on.
