Good old-fashioned berry cobbler is one of the best desserts out there.
I absolutely love cobbler. When we lived in North Carolina, I had a secret blackberry picking spot and every summer would pick gallons upon gallons of blackberries. Many I would preserve and many I would freeze for enjoying all through the year. Blackberry cobbler was a favorite treat to make any time of year. Up here in Alaska, I don’t have a secret source of blackberries, but you can make this cobbler with any kind of berries – whether it is a fresh berry in season or something from the freezer. Raspberries, blueberries – or even a combination is great.
How to Make Berry Cobbler
To begin, preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
Grease, or spray with non-stick cooking spray, a 9×9 baking dish (or comparable size) and set it aside.
In a small bowl, toss a cup of berries with 2 tablespoons of sugar. I am using frozen red raspberries here. Set them aside.
In a mixing bowl, stir together 1 cup flour, 2 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and 3 Tablespoons of sugar.
Whisk in 1/2 c (1 stick) of melted butter and 1 cup of milk.
Whisk it smooth.
Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish, then spoon the berries all over the top…
Bake this for 45-55 minutes or until the cobbler is golden brown. Serve it warm with ice cream.
Enjoy!

Your pictures are beautiful. I have always made this same type of cobbler using peaches. For some reason I never thought of using berries. With blueberries starting to come into season, I am going to try this. Thanks for the idea.

My recent post What is Resistant Starch?
What kind of sugar are you using? In the photos it appears golden and sparkly instead of plain white sugar? Thank you for sharing your recipe.
Thank you for a great question Carol! I am asked that quite often. I use organic sugar, so it is a little more coarse, and a little less "white" than "regular" granulated sugar. :)
I so love cobbler…
