Recipe Introduction
Here is a really good quick cobbler recipe for all those summer berries--my favorite is the Cherry Cobbler....YUMMM
List of Ingredients
The original recipe calls for blackberries but I've made it with all kinds of things, including cans of peaches and even canned pie fillings. It's very easy too.
2 cups sugar
1/3 cup butter
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 cups berries
2 cups boiling water
Cream 1 cup of sugar with the butter. Add flour, baking powder, salt and milk. Pour into 9x13 pan, spread to cover bottom. Pour berries over batter in pan. Sprinkle remaining sugar over top. Pour boiling water over top of all.
Bake 50 mins in 350 degree oven.
A few things I learned:
The water has to be boiling JUST before you pour it on
If you use pie filling, omit the cup of sugar you sprinkle on top
I usually use 3 cups of berries, 2 is ok but 3 is better
This recipe sounds weird but the "crust" rises to the top, the berries become a layer under the crust and the bottom become a yummy, pudding-like layer that tastes like whatever fruit you use.
