Blackberry Cobbler Made With Fresh Milled Flour
This Blackberry Cobbler made with fresh milled flour is so easy to throw together, just pop it in the oven and let it bake. Let the sweet aroma fill the house, and then once it's ready you can serve it plain or a la mode! I love having super easy hands off FMF recipes up my sleeve for those days, you just want to relax and enjoy.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter 113g 1 stick
- 3-4 cups Blackberries 600g Fresh or frozen
- 1 cup fresh milled flour 120g I love using my AP Flour Blend HERE.
- 1&1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt only if using unsalted butter
- 1 cup sugar 200g
- 1 cup water 240g You can sub milk or buttermilk for a softer, cakier style topping
- *Optional- you can sprinkle some turbinado sugar half way through baking for a crispier top.
Instructions
- Firstly, mill the flour. I like to use my AP Flour Blend. *See notes
- To the flour, add baking powder, sugar, and salt (if using unsalted butter). Then, stir to combine, and set to the side for topping.
- Preheat oven to 350*F with a 3x13 OR 12 inch cast iron pan with the butter in it. This will melt the butter as your oven preheats.
- As soon as the butter is melted, and your oven is preheated, pour the blackberries directly onto the melted butter.
- Sprinkle the dry ingredients evenly over the blackberries.
- Pour the water over the dry ingredients, and gently stir the water into the dry flour, trying to be careful not to stir the blackberries into it. (You are making a top layer over the berry layer.)
- Bake for 1 hour or until the top is golden brown. *Optional- halfway through baking, you can take the blackberry cobbler out of the oven, and sprinkle with coarse turbinado sugar for a crispier topping. Then, put back in the oven to continue baking.
- Serve fresh and warm for best results. You can enjoy this all by itself, or add some ice cream for a la mode!
Notes
Flour: My favorite AP Flour Blend is 1/3 Kamut, 1/3 soft white & 1/3 hard wheat. You can use most any flour or blend you prefer for this. OR even a blend with spelt is a delicious option as well.
Flavors: You can change up the fruit with this as well. It is a wonderful basic cobbler recipe. Check out this blog post to see some ideas.
Storage: While this fresh milled flour blackberry cobbler dessert is best enjoyed warm and fresh, to store cover and place in the fridge for up to 4 days. For longer storage, cover and place in freezer for up to 3 months. To thaw, warm in microwave or oven until heated through. Enjoy!
