Ingredients
fresh blackberries
5 cups (cleaned)
triple sec or Grand Marnier
2 tablespoons (optional, for flavor)
sugar
2 cups (granulated)
cornstarch
4 teaspoons (for thickening)
all-purpose flour
2 cups (sifted)
baking powder
4 teaspoons (for leavening)
salt
1 teaspoon (to taste)
milk
2 cups (whole or 2%)
vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon (pure)
butter
1 cup (softened or melted)
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2
In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the blackberries, triple sec or Grand Marnier, sugar, and cornstarch. Allow this mixture to sit for about 10-15 minutes to let the flavors meld and the berries to release their juices.
3
While the berry mixture rests, prepare the batter. In an ungreased 11x15-inch baking pan, thoroughly mix the flour, baking powder, and salt.
4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter until well combined. Slowly add this wet mixture to the dry ingredients in the pan, stirring gently until just combined. The batter will be thick.
5
Spread the batter evenly over the bottom of the pan, ensuring it covers the entire surface.
6
Carefully spoon the berry mixture over the batter, spreading it to cover as evenly as possible. Do not stir; allow the berries to rest on top of the batter.
7
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Baking time may vary depending on your baking pan. For glass pans, check for doneness around 45-50 minutes, while metal pans may require 50-60 minutes.
8
The cobbler is done when the berries are bubbling and the cobbler crust is golden brown.
9
Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool on a rack for about 1 hour before serving.
10
Serve warm with your favorite ice cream or chilled with whipped cream. Enjoy the leftovers the next day for a delightful treat!
