A delightful twist on the classic blackberry cobbler, this recipe adds a crunchy topping and a hint of spice for an unforgettable dessert.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Always preheat your oven to ensure even cooking.
Spread the frozen blackberries evenly in the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish.
If using fresh blackberries, rinse and pat them dry before using.
Sprinkle the granulated sugar evenly over the blackberries.
Adjust the sugar amount based on the sweetness of your berries.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the cinnamon is evenly distributed.
Cut the butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to combine until crumbly.
Cold butter works best for a crumbly texture.
Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the blackberries.
Ensure an even layer for consistent baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the blackberries are bubbling.
Place the dish on a baking sheet to catch any drips.
Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
Allowing the dessert to cool slightly helps the juices thicken.
