Black Raspberry Cobbler

Submitted by Joellen1972

"This recipe has been in our family for a long time. We use it for any type of fruit cobbler. Instead of the berries, you could use 1 or 2 cans of canned cherry pie filling. I just used freshly picked berries for this recipe today."

Looks like a good recipe HOWEVER, how many 10 X 6 pans are out there? 9 x 13. 8x8 or 9x9 but don't see many 10 X 6's.

I think this is more like a black raspberry upside down cake. When I think of a cobbler, I think of something a bit heavier than this. My husband was disappointed because he was looking for the dough to be more like a pie crust. I thought it was good if I thought of it as an upside-down cake.

Kenny and I picked black raspberries this morning and this afternoon we had cobbler. This recipe is great. I did a few modifications - I used 1/2 cup cold butter and cut in to dry ingredients and I used 1 cup heavy cream instead of milk. I greased 2 smaller pans with butter before adding the berries. YUM! Served with vanilla ice cream. YUM again!! Enjoy!

This cobbler turned out amazingly well! I used 4 cups of the black raspberries and added a pint of red, all freshly picked from our garden. It is SOOO yummy! Thanks so much for posting the recipe

If I made this recipe again I would most definitely add more fruit. I used a generous 4 cups of raspberries and it wasn't nearly enough. There was hardly any fruit with each spoonful, and a lot of dough/topping. Some parts of the pan had just a smear of fruit, like I spread a little jam on the dough. I had extra strawberries and blueberries so I made a compote and topped the cobbler with it. I also added some cinnamon and vanilla to the dough, and of course topped each serving with ice cream.
