Easy Blackberry Cobbler recipe that is quick and simple to whip up. This recipe has a perfectly flaky homemade pie crust that is easy to make and delicious!
Ingredients
Crust
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- ¾ cup crisco shortening
- ½ cup ice cold water (add water in by tbsp - could be a little more or less)
Fruit Filling
- 2 cups fresh blackberries
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
-
In a medium bowl, mix the flour and salt together.
-
Add the shortening to the dry ingredients and cut in with a fork, working into the dry ingredients, until the dough is in pea-sized pieces.
-
Add cold water to the dough, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough begins to come together, when you pat it into a ball. It should be a little dry.
-
Add dough ball to a floured surface and roll out to a ¼ inch thick piece of dough.
-
Mix the berries, sugar and flour gently together in a small bowl.
-
Cut the dough to an 8x8 piece and place it on bottom of lightly greased 8x8 baking pan.
-
Pour berry mixture on top of the dough. Cut the remaining dough into 8-inch pieces and place in criss-cross pattern on top of berries. (4-inch pieces put together are fine too - does not have to be perfect). Sprinkle the top of the criss-cross dough with sugar.
-
Bake for 25-30 minutes in preheated oven.
-
Remove from oven and eat immediately, or cool and enjoy later.
-
Enjoy this amazingly delicious cobbler!
Recipe Notes
Note:
- You can use fresh or frozen blackberries.
- Feel free to use raspberries instead of blackberries.
- For the cutting of the dough, do not worry about the cuts being perfect. I placed small strips of dough together to form the criss cross, and it was still delicious.
