This Quick and Easy Blackberry Cobbler is a family-favorite recipe. We make it as soon as we can get fresh blackberries, and just can’t get enough!

One of the perks of having tame blackberry bushes on our farm is that we have plenty of big, juicy blackberries for the summer. The drawback is that they all come ripe within about 3 weeks, and we have to figure out what to do with them before they go bad!
This Quick & Easy Blackberry Cobbler is so easy to put together, and it is so good… it tastes just like summer! Start with 4 cups of fresh blackberries. (If you don’t have fresh berries, you can use frozen blackberries. Just let them thaw in the refrigerator overnight first.) Put the berries and sugar in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir it all up, and let it heat for about 5 minutes, until the fruit is hot.
While you’re waiting on the fruit to get ready, mix up the biscuit topping. Just toss everything else in an electric mixer, and mix it on low until all the ingredients are combined.
When everything is ready, pour the fruit into a 9″ x 9″ pan. Spoon the biscuit topping out evenly over the blackberries. And then pop it in an 375 degree oven. How much easier can it get?

This looks so yummy, and I love that it’s quick to make. Now that I live out here in the country, I have discovered lots of blackberry bushes lining the far back of my property. This recipe is going to come in very handy! I can’t wait to try it!
We love this cobbler, and make it a LOT over the summer! Just watch out for the thorns when you’re picking your berries!
I made this with fresh berries from our land today. It was so easy and delicious. I’m definitely saving this recipe.
JUst wanted to make sure that it is 2 tablespoons.
I do use 2 Tablespoons of vanilla in this cobbler. If you don’t think you want quite that much vanilla flavor, you can always start with 1 Tablespoon and try it!
Yay, so glad you enjoyed it!
The finished product in the video looks quite different from the one on the original picture. Is this because you used more topping?
Great question, Sharon. I used the same recipe for the photos and the video, but I cooked them at different times. As you know with cooking, not everything comes out exactly the same way every single time! If you like your cobblers with a little less topping, the topping in this recipe can be cut in half.
