Shiny Top Blackberry Cobbler
- 5 cups Fresh Blackberries Or Other Fruit Of Your Choice
- 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
- 1 Tablespoon Sugar
- 1-1/2 cup Water
- 2 cups All-purpose Flour
- 3 cups Sugar, Divided
- 1 cup Whole Milk
- 1/3 cups Butter, Softened
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt, Divided
- 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Spread the berries in a greased 2 1/2 quart casserole dish. Sprinkle with lemon or lime juice and toss with 1 tablespoon sugar. Berries, especially blackberries can be tart and the sugar really helps to calm that down. You want them to taste the way you would if you were eating them alone.
- Put your water in a small saucepan and bring to a to boil.
- In a medium bowl, stir the flour, 1 1/2 cups of sugar, milk, butter, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt. The mixture will be thick. That's just how you want it. Spoon the batter over the berries and spread to the edges. Make sure the batter goes all the way to the edge so that it makes a seal. Set aside.
- In a small bowl mix the remaining sugar, cornstarch and salt and sprinkle evenly over the batter. Gently pour the boiling water over the batter mixture, place the casserole dish on a baking sheet (mine always runs over a little and this saves me from a lot of oven cleaning toil) and bake for 1 hour at 350 F.
- Serve warm with ice cream.
