What kind of blackberries work best?
You can use fresh or frozen blackberries. If using frozen, make sure they are unthawed.
Can I use a different fruit instead of blackberries?
Yes, this recipe would work well with raspberries, blueberries, cherries, peaches, or a berry mix. Adjust
baking time as needed-
Do I need to use a specific size baking dish?
A 2-quart baking dish is ideal, but an 8-inch or 9-inch square pan would also work. Just watch closely for
doneness with different sizes.
Can I substitute regular flour for the self-rising flour?
You can, but add 1 112 teaspoons baking powder and 1 teaspoon salt if using regular flour. The self-
rising flour helps create the lift.
How long does the cobbler stay fresh?
Store cobbler leftovers covered at room temperature up to 2 days. The cakey topping may soften slightly.
