Introduction:

Looking for a mouthwatering dessert that’s both easy to make and delicious? This Mountain Cobbler, featuring a cake-like topping and juicy blackberries, is a perfect choice. Serve it warm with thick cream or whipped cream for a delightful treat that will impress everyone at the table.

Ingredients:

For the Berry Filling:

• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 6 cups fresh blackberries
• 1/4 cup melted butter

For the Batter:

• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 cups white sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• A pinch of salt
• 2 cups milk
• 1/4 cup unsalted melted butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

2. Prepare the Berry Filling:

• In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup of white sugar with 2 tablespoons of cornstarch.
• In a large bowl, combine the fresh blackberries and the melted butter.
• Sprinkle the cornstarch mixture over the berries and gently mix to coat evenly.
• Spread the berry mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.

3. Prepare the Batter:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 1/2 cups of white sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
• Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. The batter should have some lumps.

4. Assemble the Cobbler:

• Pour the batter over the blackberry mixture in the baking dish, spreading it evenly.
• The batter will rise and form a cake-like topping over the berries as it bakes.

5. Bake the Cobbler:

• Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 55 to 60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the berries are bubbly and tender.

6. Serve:

• Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. It’s best enjoyed warm with a dollop of thick cream or a scoop of whipped cream.

Tips and Tricks:

• For an extra burst of flavor, you can add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the berry mixture.
• To make the crust even more golden and crispy, sprinkle a bit of sugar on top before baking.
