Blackberry Cobbler

Serves: 6

1/2 c. salted butter
1 c. flour
1 c. sugar
3/4 c. milk
1 1/2 t. baking powder
2 c. fresh blackberries, washed and dried

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Put stick of butter in 2-3 quart baking dish and place in oven while preheating to melt butter. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder and milk. Stir well. Once butter is melted, stir in dry mixture; mix well. Pour berries on top. Bake for 45-55 minutes or until top is brown and mixture is set. Serve warm.

Tips: What more needs to be said about berry cobbler? This was wonderful and delicious! It could definitely be breakfast too if you so desired. I found blackberries on sale at City Market (a Kroger-affiliated store) for $1.00 a carton so I used 2 cartons in this recipe but I probably could have used one more. How great this would have been if I'd had homegrown blackberries?! If you use stick margarine instead of butter then you should add just a pinch of salt to the dry mixture. As this bakes the berries will sink to the bottom and the cobbler will be all you see on top. I also shared this recipe at Simply Sweet Home's Friday Favorites.

Hello! Stopping by from Friday Favorites. Blackberries for $1.00? What a steal! I live in Oregon where blackberries grow like weeds and they're still $3-$4 a pint even when they're in season.
