Now that berries are in season, I am so thrilled to be able to cook with them. I love berry desserts and blackberries are one of my favorites. They are sweet but have a bit of a tang and that makes them perfect for cobbler. Craving more delicious easy desserts? You simply have to try our caramel apple pecan cobbler & peach cobbler!
Blackberry Cobbler
Cobblers are really easy and quick to make, and you can get creative and use your favorite flavor combinations.
You can do a mixed berry cobbler, or add lemon zest, vanilla, and cinnamon. Your imagination is the limit.
There is nothing quite like having a bite of still-warm berry cobbler with a big scoop of your favorite ice cream, or just a drizzle of freshly whipped cream.
BLACKBERRY COBBLER INGREDIENTS:
- Blackberries
- Sugar
- Orange zest
- All-purpose flour
- Baking powder
- Salt
- Milk
- Butter
I use 2% milk, but you can use the milk of your choice.
HOW TO MAKE BLACKBERRY COBBLER?
- Mix the blackberries, sugar, and orange zest in a small bowl. Let stand for 20 minutes until syrupy
- Preheat the oven to 375 F. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, melted butter, and milk.
- Pour the batter into an ungreased 8-inch square baking dish
- Spoon the berry mixture on top and bake for 40-50 minutes until golden brown.
CAN YOU MAKE BLACKBERRY COBBLER WITH FROZEN BERRIES?
Yes, you can. You can either use fresh or frozen blackberries. No need to thaw them since you have to let them sit for 20 minutes with the sugar anyway.
CAN YOU MAKE A BLACKBERRY COBBLER AHEAD OF TIME?
You sure can. You can make it up to step 4 the night before, cover with plastic wrap, refrigerate it, and bake it the next day.
HOW TO STORE LEFTOVER BLACKBERRY COBBLER?
You can keep the blackberry cobbler out at room temperature for 12 hours. After that time you have to refrigerate it.
Cover any leftovers with plastic wrap or place them in an airtight container before refrigerating them to prevent them from drying up. They keep for up to 3 days in the fridge.

Awesome and easy! Everyone in my family loves it and request’s it often! Thank you for sharing!
Made this exactly as the recipe says. It was won.der.ful! Added a little Halo ice cream and only used the 1/2 cup sugar. Thank you Jenni!!
I just love the simple recipes. I baked this cobbler for a church potluck and it was all eaten.
Absolutely love this! I have made it three times now in one week. It is super easy and delicious! My husband is not even a fan of blackberries but he has eaten it every single night with vanilla ice cream. I am going to try this with different fruit in the future. I think this is a perfect go to for any cobbler. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!😊
This recipe was wonderful! I used 1.5 tsp of lemon zest and a couple shakes of cinnamon and it was divine! I also was out of milk so I used canned coconut milk and we all loved it!
Thanks Jenni, So glad you were able to customize it to your liking!
