Blackberry Cobbler ~ Easy ~ Fresh ~ Delicious

Hi Friends……It is blackberry season here in the Midwest and I must say it is a fantastic crop this year.  I will be posting 3 different post to show you exactly what I did with berries.  So be on the look out in the next couple of weeks for the other ideas for berries.

So first I wanted to share my Blackberry Cobbler recipe with you……now I know that all you people are busy with kids, work and life stuff so whenever I can share something that is a little easier I love to do that.  

Making good food for your family doesn’t have to be hard.

First off I am not too proud to admit I do not make my own pie crust. (Gasp!)  

Believe me, I have tried  many a couple of  times over 15+ years ago, but it was not very good and it takes a little more time that I really want to invest, so I go the easy route and use Pillsbury pie dough for my cobblers and pies, and it is darn good, so why not.

Ok, let’s get this cobbler started.

I do not have a blackberry patch of my own, I wish I did, I bought my berries from a local farmer, which is good because I do love supporting our farmers.

I wanted to make several recipes with my berries so I bought a flat, which is 8 quarts of berries.

Prepare your berries by rinsing to remove any dirt, leaves and stems.

Add berries, sugar, butter, cornstarch stir gently.

Line your pie pan or dish with a layer of pie dough.  Add a layer of the blackberry mixture, then your next layer of pie dough, then blackberry mixture again. 2 layers of berries, with dough on bottom, in between and then on top.

After your second layer of blackberries add your final pie dough strips in a crisscross pattern.

Bake until golden brown.

Thank you for spending a little time here today.  Do you have a berry recipe that you love?  I would love to hear from you in the comments below or email me.

Enjoy the rest of your day!
