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! Photo courtesy of TOH. As soon as blackberries are readily available I will be making this again for my family or Church. Will update the photo.

Ingredients

  • 6 cups fresh or frozen blackberries ..(if using frozen blackberries, do not thaw before assembling cobbler)
  • 1/2 - 3/4 cups sugar, depending on how sour your berries are
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon grated lime peel
  • SOUR CREAM PASTRY
  • 1 - 1/3 cups flour
  • 3 tablespoons sugar, divided
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 7 tablespoons cold butter, divided
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 dash whipping cream

How To Make blackberry cobbler

  • Step 1
    Place 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.
  • Step 2
    In 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.
  • Step 3
    Roll 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.
  • Step 4
    Bake, 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!
