Ingredients:

For The Berries:

½ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
6 cups fresh blackberries
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

For The Batter:

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups milk
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

How To Make Blackberry Cobbler:

Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Prepare the Berries: In a small bowl, whisk together sugar and cornstarch. Place fresh blackberries in a mixing bowl and drizzle with melted butter. Sprinkle the cornstarch mixture over the berries, then toss until evenly coated. Spread the coated berries into the prepared baking dish.
Make the Batter: In another mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly blended. Stir in milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until combined but still slightly lumpy. Pour the batter over the berries in the baking dish.
Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake until the berries are tender and the crust is golden brown, approximately 55 to 60 minutes.

Tips:

Use fresh, ripe blackberries for the best flavor and texture. If fresh berries are not available, you can also use frozen blackberries, but be sure to thaw and drain them before using.
Adjust the sweetness according to your taste preference. If the berries are particularly tart, you may want to increase the amount of sugar in the filling.
For extra flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter.
Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving to allow the juices to thicken and the flavors to meld together. Enjoy it warm or at room temperature for the best taste and texture.
