- 2 cups fresh blackberries - 2 cups fresh peaches, sliced - 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice Fresh blackberries bring a sweet and tart flavor. Their juicy essence adds depth to the cobbler.

It gives a nice zing that balances the sweetness. - 1 cup granulated sugar, divided - 1 cup all-purpose flour - 1 tablespoon baking powder - ½ teaspoon salt - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon Granulated sugar sweetens the fruit and batter.

Ground cinnamon adds warmth and a hint of spice. - 1 cup whole milk - ½ cup unsalted butter, melted - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract Whole milk keeps the batter moist. It adds richness to each bite. Unsalted butter, when melted, gives a lovely flavor and texture. Vanilla extract adds a sweet aroma that ties everything together. These wet ingredients create a luscious batter that pairs perfectly with the fruit. 1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to get it warm. This step is key for a well-cooked cobbler. 2. Prepare the fruit mixture: In a large bowl, mix 2 cups of blackberries and 2 cups of sliced peaches. Add ½ cup of sugar, a tablespoon of lemon juice, and a teaspoon of vanilla extract. Gently toss the fruit to coat it evenly. Let it sit for about 10 minutes. This helps the fruit release its sweet juices. 1. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and spices: In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup of flour, the remaining ½ cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, ½ teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are blended. 1. Mix milk and butter: In a new bowl, pour in 1 cup of whole milk and ½ cup of melted unsalted butter. Stir until the mixture is well combined. 2. Combine wet and dry mixtures: Gradually pour the wet mix into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. It’s okay if the batter has a few lumps. This keeps your cobbler light and fluffy. Now you're ready to assemble your delicious blackberry peach cobbler! To achieve the perfect golden brown top on your cobbler, keep an eye on the oven. Bake it for 30-35 minutes. The top should look crisp and golden. If you want extra color, turn on the broiler for a minute or two. Just watch it closely to avoid burning. You’ll know the cobbler is done when a toothpick inserted into the batter comes out clean. You can also check if the edges pull away from the skillet slightly. These signs mean your dessert is ready to enjoy! The best pairing for this cobbler is creamy vanilla ice cream. The cold ice cream melts into the warm cobbler, creating a delightful mix. You can also try whipped cream for a lighter option. For a beautiful presentation, serve the cobbler warm straight from the skillet. Scoop it into bowls for a more formal look. Top each serving with ice cream and drizzle some of the sweet juices over it. This makes it extra special and inviting! {{image_4}} You can switch up the fruit in your cobbler. Use other berries like raspberries or blueberries. They add a nice twist to the flavor. If you prefer stone fruits, try plums or cherries. They blend well with the sweet filling. Each fruit brings its own taste, making the dish unique. You can also mix different fruits for more fun. Just keep the same amount of fruit as the original recipe. For those who need gluten-free options, you can use gluten-free flour. It works well in the same amount as all-purpose flour. This way, you can still enjoy a tasty dessert without gluten. If you want vegan adaptations, replace the milk with almond or oat milk. Use a plant-based butter instead of regular butter. You can also swap the granulated sugar for coconut sugar. These changes keep the dessert delicious while meeting different dietary needs. To keep your blackberry peach cobbler fresh, follow these steps: - Let the cobbler cool completely. - Cover it tightly with plastic wrap or foil. - Place it in the fridge for up to three days. - For longer storage, freeze the cobbler. Wrap it well, then store it in an airtight container. Warming up your leftovers is simple. Here are two effective methods: 1. Oven Method: - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). - Place the cobbler in an oven-safe dish. - Cover it with foil to keep it moist. - Heat for about 15-20 minutes until warm. 2. Microwave Method: - Place a slice on a microwave-safe plate. - Heat on high for 30 seconds to 1 minute. - Check to see if it is warm enough. Add more time if needed. No matter how you reheat, serve it warm with vanilla ice cream for the best taste! Yes, you can use frozen fruit for this cobbler. Just remember to thaw and drain any excess liquid. This keeps your cobbler from getting too watery. Frozen fruit is a great option when fresh fruit is out of season. It saves time and still gives a tasty result! You can tell when your cobbler is done by checking the top. It should be golden brown. Insert a toothpick into the batter; if it comes out clean, your cobbler is ready. If it has wet batter on it, give it a few more minutes in the oven. No worries! You can use any oven-safe skillet or even a baking dish.

Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh blackberries

2 cups fresh peaches, sliced

1 cup granulated sugar, divided

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

1 cup whole milk

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Vanilla ice cream (for serving)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking.

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the blackberries, sliced peaches, ½ cup of granulated sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Gently toss the fruit to ensure it is well-coated with the sugar and flavorings. Allow the mixture to sit for about 10 minutes, enabling the fruit to release its natural juices.

      In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, the remaining ½ cup of sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon until evenly combined.

        In another bowl, mix the whole milk and melted butter together until fully integrated. Gradually pour this wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s perfectly fine for the batter to have a few small lumps.

          In a pre-seasoned cast-iron skillet or any oven-safe skillet, pour the fruit mixture evenly over the bottom. Carefully spoon the batter over the top of the fruit mixture; it’s alright if the fruit is not completely covered.

            Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is a beautiful golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the batter comes out clean.

              Once your cobbler is baked to perfection, take it out of the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
