🍇 Blackberry Cobbler
🧾 Ingredients (serves 6–8)
For the filling:
- 4 cups fresh or frozen blackberries

3. Prepare the topping
- In another bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Stir in milk and melted butter until smooth.
4. Assemble the cobbler
- Drop spoonfuls of the topping over the blackberry filling.

💡 Tips
- Juicy filling: Add a splash of orange juice or a teaspoon of zest for extra brightness.
- Crispier topping: Sprinkle a little sugar over the topping before baking.
- Frozen berries: No need to thaw; just increase baking time by 5–10 minutes.
🍽️ Variations
- Mixed berry cobbler: Use blackberries, blueberries, and raspberries.
- Oat topping: Add ¼ cup oats and 2 tbsp brown sugar to the topping for texture.
- Gluten-free: Substitute flour with almond flour or a gluten-free blend.
