Blackberry cobbler key ingredients

Self rising flour– Self rising flour contains a leavening agent that helps your baked goods rise. I bought a small package of self rising flour for $1.16 which is super budget friendly, but I’ve included a recipe on how to make it at home, too!

Sugar– Unbleached cane sugar is my go-to sugar selection. Zulka pure cane sugar is a great budget-friendly brand!

Egg– Adding an egg to the blackberry cobbler made it a little more fluffy and cake like, which is super delicious!

Blackberries– You can use fresh or frozen blackberries. If you are using frozen blackberries, do not thaw them out beforehand, use them while they are frozen.

Chef’s tips

How to make self rising flour

Self rising flour has leavening in it to help backed good rise. You can make self rising flour by combining:

• 1 cup of all purpose flour
• 1 1/2 tsp of baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt

Make the cobbler in a cast iron pan

I love to make this easy blackberry cobbler in a cast iron pan because it’s how grandma would make hers. The edges of the cobbler get deliciously golden brown and the cast iron gets nice and hot so the blackberries caramelize. Yeah, you could use a baking dish… but if you have a cast iron pan, do that!

Use different fruits for cobbler

This easy blackberry cobbler recipe is the perfect guidline for any kind of cobbler. You can use a mixture of berries, or totally different fruits. Here are a few of my favorite recommendations:

• Peaches
• Blueberries
• Strawberries
• Cherries
• Raspberries

How to make easy blackberry cobbler

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cream the butter and sugar together in a large bowl. Add the self rising flour, egg, and vanilla extract and mix until it is just combined. Pour the mixture into a baking dish or cast iron pan.
2. Toss the blackberries with the lemon juice and sugar. Scatter the blackberries over the cobbler batter in the cast iron pan.
3. Bake the blackberry cobbler for 35-45 minutes, until the edges are golden brown. Mangia!

How to store and reheat cobbler

You can store the blackberry cobbler at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

You can reheat the cobbler by placing it in the oven at 350 degrees for 5 minutes.

How to freeze cobbler

You can freeze any kind of cobbler! First, bake the blackberry cobbler and allow it to cool to room temperature. Place the cobbler in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.

To reheat the frozen cobbler, allow the cobbler to thaw at room temperature overnight. Place it in the oven at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or reheat it in the microwave.
