Homemade Blackberry Cobbler

Grandma’s Old Fashioned Blackberry Cobbler One of my fondest summer memories, when I was young, was picking blackberries for Grandma’s Old Fashioned Blackberry Cobbler.

Hot summer day, getting pricked by the stickers, watching for snakes…. oh, what fun!! The worst and the best were picking wild blackberries in random places in the pasture.

Wild blackberries have half inch long stickers and a bigger chance of snakes.

However, wild blackberries are much better, in my opinion, than blackberries that horticulturists have ‘improved’. They have smaller seeds and more intense flavor.

Add milk and mix everything together. Then leave it to rest for half an hour in the refrigerator.

At the end of this time, collect the dough.

Cut small pieces of dough the size of a walnut.

Roll it into a ball and crush it with the palm of your hand to form discs about 4 cm in diameter (**).

Cover the blackberries with these discs.

Bake for 30 minutes at 180 ° C.

Serve warm or at room temperature (I personally prefer lukewarm).

Enjoy !
