  • Blackberries!
    Me and DS LOVE blackberries! I found a great price on an 8 pound package of frozen blackberries lol! Typically around here (I made a blackberry cobbler last summer) they are around $4 for a single pound. This was a steal.

    Give me your best blackberry recipes! Pies, sauces, desserts-anything goes. We LOVE blackberries!

    This stuff is wildly good! Makes 6 cups, with a great deep red color, a sweet tart bite to it, and I will make it frequently since I have a lemon tree. I used frozen berries, but those of you who live in berry country will be in hog heaven. Try it!

    1 tsp. butter
    1 c. flour
    1 tsp. baking powder
    pinch of salt
    1/2c. milk
    sweetened blackberries or cherries

    Cream 1/2 c. sugar & butter. Blend in flour, baking powder & salt. Stir in milk; pour into a greased 8” square baking dish. Cover with blackberries. Bake at 325-350°F for about 45 minutes. Sprinkle top with remaining sugar; bake for 5 - 10 minutes longer.

    Blackberry Pie
    Source: www.RecipeSource.com

    1 3/4 c. flour, unsifted
    1/2 tsp. salt
    2/3 c. vegetable shortening
    1/3 c. cold water
    1 c. sugar
    1/4 c. flour
    dash of salt
    4 c. fresh blackberries, washed & drained

    Sift together 1 3/4 c. flour & salt in a mixing bowl. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender until mixture resembles large coarse crumbs. Sprinkle water over flour mixture, stirring it in gently with a fork to make it gather into a ball (the less water the better – just enough to hold it together). Turn out onto a lightly floured board & shape with your hands into two balls, one slightly larger than the other. Chill dough for 1 hour, then roll out the large ball to fit the bottom of a 9 or 10" pie dish. Preheat oven to 375°F.

    Now, mix sugar & flour in a separate bowl, then add a dash of salt & stir in berries. Pour mixture into the empty pie shell, then roll out remaining ball of dough to make a top crust. Crimp & trim edges, then slash the top crust in several places. Bake for 25 – 30 minutes or until golden brown.

  • RE: Blackberries!

    Here is my grandmothers recipe

    Blackberry Cobbler (my grandmother)
    quantities are approximate--she did all her cooking without measuring
    anything and we had to guess at all her recipes

    2 c. all purpose flour
    2 eggs, beaten
    scant t. baking powder
    2 c. sugar
    approx 3/4 c. milk (enough to make a stiff batter)
    2 c. blackberries

    Combine all but blackberries. Blend well. Fold in blackberries. Pour into greased 8 x 8 pan. Bake at 350 until top is golden brown and batter is done (estimate 1 hour, but keep checking). This is a cakelike texture. We always ate it warm out of the pan with milk and sugar on it
    and the blackberries came from her farm near Elizabeth WV. Yummy!
