Here's a step-by-step guide to creating a mouthwatering Homemade Kentucky Blackberry Cobbler:
THE INGREDIENTS LIST:
FOR THE FILLING:
6 Cups.Of fresh blackberries.
1 Cup.Of granulated sugar.
1 Large spoon.Of lemon juice.
2 Large spoons.Of cornstarch.
1 small spoon.Of vanilla extract.
FOR THE CRUST:
2 Cups.Of all-purpose flour.
1/3 Cup.Of granulated sugar.
1 Large spoon.Of baking powder.
1/2 mall spoon.Of salt.
1/2 Cup.Of unsalted butter, cold and cubed.
1 Cup.Of milk.
FOR THE TOPPING:
2 Large spoons.Of unsalted butter, melted.
2 Large spoons.Of granulated sugar.
1/2 small spoon.Of ground cinnamon.
PREPARATION:
1st Step:
Prepare your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
2nd Step:
In a large mixing bowl, gently toss the blackberries with sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla extract until the berries are evenly coated. Put it to the side so that the flavors may come together while you work on the crust.
3rd Step:
Put the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt for the crust into a separate basin and mix them together. A pastry cutter or your fingers may be used to cut the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. The butter should be added after the flour mixture has been chilled.
4th Step:
Pour in the milk, then whisk the mixture until it is completely incorporated. Take care not to overmix the ingredients; a few lumps are OK. And place the blackberry filling in a baking dish that is 9 inches by 13 inches or another baking dish that is a comparable size.
5th Step:
Spread the dough mixture evenly over the blackberries, but leave small holes here and there so the fruit may show through. Using a spatula, carefully even out the surface of the topping.
6th Step:
For the topping, mix the melted butter, sugar, and cinnamon powder together in a small dish. Set aside. This mixture should be brushed over the dough until it completely covers the surface of the dough.
7th Step:
After the oven has been warmed, put the baking dish inside and bake for approximately 35 to 40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the blackberries are bubbling and soft.
8th Step:
After the cobbler has been cooked, take it from the oven and allow it to cool for a couple of minutes before serving. This gives the filling a little bit of time to set.
9th Step:
Warm up some vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, then top the Kentucky Blackberry Cobbler with it. It is impossible to overstate how delicious it is when warm, juicy blackberries are paired with a buttery, slightly crunchy crust.
