Ingredients
Scale
Butter and Sugar
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
- 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar, divided
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar (optional, for sprinkling)
Batter
- 1 cup self-rising flour
- 1 cup milk
Fruit
- 2 cups blackberries (fresh or frozen)
Instructions
- Melt Butter: Melt the butter in a microwavable dish until fully liquefied and smooth.
- Make Batter: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar with the self-rising flour. Whisk in the milk until the batter is smooth and fully incorporated. Pour the melted butter into the bowl and whisk everything together thoroughly.
- Prepare Baking Dish: Butter a baking dish to prevent sticking. Rinse the blackberries under cold water and pat them dry gently with a paper towel or clean cloth.
- Assemble Cobbler: Pour the batter evenly into the buttered baking dish. Distribute the blackberries evenly over the top of the batter. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of granulated sugar evenly over the blackberries.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for 1 hour until the cobbler is golden brown and bubbly around the edges.
- Optional Sugar Sprinkle: If desired, sprinkle an additional teaspoon of sugar over the cobbler 10 minutes before the baking time is complete to add extra sweetness and a slight crunch.
Notes
- Frozen blackberries can be used but do not thaw before use to prevent excess liquid.
- Self-rising flour contains baking powder and salt, so additional leavening agents are unnecessary.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra treat.
- For a tangier flavor, add a teaspoon of lemon zest to the batter.
