All you need are 6 simple ingredients, including self rising flour to make this old fashioned blackberry cobbler recipe just like your grandma used to make. You’ll be feeling all the nostalgia with this simple dessert recipe that’s perfect for spring or summer.

Easy blackberry cobbler recipe – I think this is the same recipe every mom in America made us as kids. My mom’s recipe came from a heavy blue cookbook that I want to say may have been Better Homes and Gardens or Betty Crocker. Either way, do not skimp on the sugar and always serve warm with ice cream.

The real secret compared to other recipes is that I always butter the dish. The butter creates the most wonderfully delicious bottom on the cobbler. It’s so rich and comforting!

Blackberry Cobbler Ingredients

When I said you only need 6 ingredients to make this recipe for blackberry cobbler, I meant it! It’s so simple! Most of the ingredients are pantry staples too! Here is everything you’ll need:

  • Sugar: just regular white granulated sugar, some of the cobbler topping and some sprinkling on top
  • Self-Rising Flour: found on the same aisle as the all-purpose flour
  • Salt: enhances all the flavors
  • Whole Milk: helps binds the batter together, 2% milk works fine too
  • Butter: adds flavor and richness to the crust
  • Blackberries: can be fresh or frozen, more details below

The measurements required for each ingredient can be found in the recipe card at the end of the post.

What is Self-Rising Flour?

Self-rising flour is a flour that has a leavening agent already included in it, usually baking powder. It usually has a little salt added to it as well. It helps the baked good rise.

If you don’t have self-rising flour or you can’t find it, you can make your own! Just 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder and ½ teaspoon of salt for every 1 cup of flour in your recipe.

Can I Use Frozen Blackberries?

Both fresh and frozen blackberries work great in this recipe. Of course we love this in the summertime with those juicy, fresh blackberries, but sometimes you need blackberry cobbler when it’s not summertime, so frozen blackberries will work just fine.

No need to thaw them ahead of time. Just sprinkle them over the top frozen and they will thaw as it bakes. If you let them thaw beforehand, they will bleed into the cobbler batter and make it purple and they will be mushy and not the right texture.

Easy to Make Blackberry Lime Bars

These blackberry lime bars are creamy, bright, and super delicious. A little lime juice, a handful of blackberries, a simple graham cracker crust, a few easy steps, and you have sweet, tangy bars that everyone will enjoy.

I learned long ago that women love chocolate and men love berry desserts… supposedly. Things like, Berries and Cream Cheesecake Bars, Razzleberry Pie, or Deep Fried Strawberry Cheesecakes. But that is so not the case with my husband and I.

I definitely prefer all things berry and he is all about the chocolate. Well, unless it’s his favorite Lime Pie Brazil. Which is where this recipe came from. His lime pie recipe that he learned while living in Brazil is made with a cracker crumb crust, sweetened condensed milk, media crema, eggs and lime juice of course.

One day we were trying to decide on dessert and he voted for his pie, but I was in the mood for blackberries. The juicy blackberries were making the filling too soupy when baked, so we took the crema out and it turned out perfect. It totally reminds me of our lemon raspberry bars.

There’s just something about a fresh fruit dessert that makes me feel so light and wonderful. I mean, really. Even if it’s a long and nasty winter I’ll bust out these blackberry lime bars and suddenly winter doesn’t seem so bad.

Oregon Berries

Last summer we had the chance to go to Portland to visit Oregon Berries and it was incredible! The taste of those fresh ripe berries were unlike anything you can buy at the store here. When we buy local we ensure quality and secure the livelihoods of families who are making our country a place of variety and success. Cade and I committed right there to check where our berries are coming from and only buy local.

The blackberries we tasted there made me think of these blackberry lime bars and I just knew I had to reshoot this recipe. So here you go!
