Blackberry Cobbler

Blackberry Cobbler

Blackberry Cobbler is a dessert that is typically found in the southern parts of the United States. It has a golden filling and a sweet biscuit topping.

The basic recipe for Blackberry Cobbler requires blackberries, flour, butter, sugar and milk to be mixed together and placed in a baking dish. The mixture is then baked to create the crust before adding blackberries and sugar on top of it. Lastly, it will be placed back into the oven for another 10-15 minutes before being served warm or cold.

I also like to pick blackberries as the children do, but I especially like to eat them in cakes, pies… put them in a fruit salad… or mix them with vanilla ice cream. But my favorite blackberry dessert is the blackberry cobbler!

The cobbler is an American dessert made of fruits, covered with a yeast dough… and the blackberry cobbler, like the peach cobbler, is a typical dish of the South of the United States: the regions of Virginia, Georgia, North, and South Carolina. This Southern cooking, which is significantly influenced by the culinary tradition brought by the slaves, is very close to soul food… and the blackberry cobbler can also be found in the soul food cooking manuals.
