Instructions:
-
Wash the blackberries 🫧: Rinse the berries gently under cold water and let them dry on paper towels. This step ensures that any dirt or debris is removed, and the berries are ready for the cobbler.
-
Preheat the oven 🔥: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) so it’s ready for baking when you’ve assembled your cobbler.
-
Arrange the berries 🍇: Place the dried blackberries in a shallow 12×12-inch baking dish, spreading them out evenly.
-
Sprinkle with sugar 🍬: Evenly sprinkle 1/4 cup of sugar over the blackberries to enhance their natural sweetness.
-
Prepare the topping 🥣: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of white cornmeal, 1/2 cup of sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are thoroughly combined.
-
Add the wet ingredients 🥛: Pour in the 1/2 cup of buttermilk and the 2 tablespoons of melted butter into the dry mixture. Stir until the batter is smooth and well combined.
-
Top the berries 🍚: Using a large spoon, drop spoonfuls of the cornmeal mixture over the blackberries in the dish. Spread the mixture gently, but do not cover the berries completely. Leave some berries exposed for a beautiful presentation.
-
Make the honey sauce 🍯: In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of honey, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Stir until the sauce is smooth and well blended.
-
Drizzle the sauce 🍯➡️🍇: Pour the honey-butter-lemon sauce evenly over the cobbler, adding a layer of sweet, tangy flavor.
-
Bake the cobbler ⏲️: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 1 hour. The cobbler should be golden brown and bubbly when done.
-
Cool and serve 🍽️: Allow the cobbler to cool to room temperature before serving. This step helps the flavors meld together and makes the cobbler easier to cut and serve.
This old-fashioned Blackberry Cobbler is a timeless dessert that combines the tartness of fresh blackberries with a sweet, honey-infused topping.
