Servings 1 cobbler

Equipment

  • 8x8-inch baking dish
  • Medium-sized mixing bowl

Ingredients
  

Filling

  • 4 cups blackberries fresh or frozen
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch

Crust

  • 1 stick butter softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 egg lightly beatened
  • 1 cup self-rising flour can be substituted for 1 cup all-purpose flour with 1½  teaspoons baking powder and ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.

For filling

  • Put fruit into 8x8-inch baking dish. Combine sugar and cornstarch. Sprinkle over fruit.

For crust

  • Mix butter and sugar. Stir in egg. Gradually add flour and mix well. The mixture will have a consistency of heavy cake batter. Drop spoonfuls on top of fruit. The topping will spread out as it cooks.
  • Bake until light brown and the topping doesn’t shake, usually 1 hour. Test with a toothpick. Yield: Eight servings

Notes

When doubled, this recipe works well in a 9x13-inch baking dish. It will take 1½ to 2 hours to bake. Test at 1 hour and 45 minutes.
