I’ve been making this recipe at least once a week for the past month! I can’t seem to keep it in the house.
This Classic Blackberry Cobbler is a timeless, comforting dessert that pairs a sweet-tart blackberry filling with a soft, golden, cake-like topping. It’s simple to make, irresistibly cozy, and perfect served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

👩🍳 How to Make Classic Blackberry Cobbler
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Step 2: Make the Blackberry Filling
In a large bowl, mix together the blackberries, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch until the berries are evenly coated. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
Step 3: Prepare the Topping
In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until just combined and smooth—don’t overmix.
Step 4: Assemble and Bake
Spoon the batter evenly over the blackberry mixture. Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the topping is golden and the filling is bubbling at the edges.
Step 5: Cool and Serve
Let the cobbler rest for 10–15 minutes before serving. Enjoy it warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate comfort dessert.
