This is another delicious recipe I tried with many different fruits. The recipe came from my Oct/Nov 2005 TOH book.

It was a contest winning recipe..thought I would share. It is tested and approved by my family and friends.

I love the sour cream crust..

Enjoy!

How to Make Blackberry Cobbler

Step-by-Step

1Place the blackberries in a large bowl. Combine the sugar, cornstarch and lime peel; sprinkle over berries and gently toss to coat. Pour into a greased 9-in. square baking dish.
2In a large bowl, combine the flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda; cut in 5 tablespoons butter until crumbly. Combine sour cream and heavy cream; gradually add to crumb mixture, tossing with a fork until mixture forms a ball.

I use my food processor. Works great. Saves so much time.
3Roll out to fit top of baking dish; place pastry over filling. Trim and seal edges; cut slits in top. Melt remaining butter; brush over pastry. Sprinkle with remaining sugar.
4Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 30 minutes. Cover and bake 15-20 minutes longer or until filling is bubbly and crust is golden brown. Cool for 15 minutes before serving.

So yummy!
