Serve this easy Homemade Blackberry Cobbler with Breyer’s Vanilla Bean ice cream, or buy your favorite brand.
First, I grew up picking all the berries. We had so much fun! Second, picking our blackberries was the most satisfying adventure because we could find hundreds of them. Finally, I love summer fruit, kind of obsessed. I buy way too many berries every time I head to the market. I guess I have a berry addiction.
In short, when I use all I can from my purchases, I freeze them to cook with through the rest of the year, like smoothies, pies, and cobblers. I love to use berries for savory sauces for grilled meats.
Most importantly, blackberries are a nutrient-dense food that falls into the superfood category with their deep, blue-black color called anthocyanin, which is a type of antioxidant. In addition, they are high in fiber, low in natural sugars, and full of immune-boosting vitamins and minerals. So you can’t go wrong with choosing blackberries to put into all your recipes.
In conclusion
I noted with asterisks that this recipe could convert to gluten-free and dairy-free. For the flour, you can use gluten-free flour. I like Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-Free 1 to 1 Baking Flour. A substitute that will work beautifully for the milk is almond milk. I love the Califia Farms Unsweetened Almond milk. It’s a lovely creamy mixture. Finally, the ice cream – there are so many dairy-free ice creams, but my personal favorite is Cado Dairy-Free Vanilla Ice Cream. All these products should be available in your local grocery stores.
Enjoy this summertime favorite with your family and friends even into early fall. Homemade Blackberry Cobbler is the best dessert for your summer gatherings!
