To Freeze: Freeze the baked cobbler for up to 3 months, covered well with aluminum foil. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and warm in the oven before serving.

To Reheat: The microwave or oven can be used to reheat this easy cobbler. To reheat it in the oven, remove it from the fridge and allow it to come to room temperature. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 20 minutes, or until warmed through. Place tinfoil over it if it starts browning too much.

  1. I’ve made this recipe twice now. Both times it will not get done in the middle. It is a very runny batter and I am wondering if it needs less milk?

    1. Hi Lisa, sounds like it needs to be cooked longer. You may want to check your oven temp and make sure it’s calibrated to the right temperature.

    I made your blueberry cobbler yesterday and left a glowing review. So I started looking at your other cobbler recipes. As I expected this one is very similar to the blueberry cobbler with one notable exception. In the blueberry you put the blueberries on the butter and the batter poured over. With this one you pour the batter over the butter and then put the blackberries on top. Is there some special reason for the reversal? Thanks!

    1. I have the same question. Why no reply? Love the Bluebery cobbler. Why not make raspberry cobbler the same way?

  3. In you recipe you call for
    1 1/2 c Sugar but in the steps you state:
    sugar (1 cup minus 1 tablespoons of sugar – reserve the tablespoon for sprinkling on top at the end),
    So is it supposed to be 1 cup of sugar minus 1 tsp.
    Or 1 1/2 c Sugar minus 1 tsp?

    I made this blackberry cobbler using only one-half cup sugar in the dry ingredients. I did not sprinkle sugar on the top. I also added one tsp cinnamon in the dry ingredients. I will probably make it again.
