Equipment

  • 1 9-inch round cake pan greased
  • 1 Mixing Bowl large
  • 1 Whisk

Ingredients
  

Berry Filling

  • 4 cups mixed frozen berries
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

Cobbler Topping

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1/4 cup milk

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the frozen berries with sugar, flour, and lemon juice. Stir gently to coat the berries evenly. Pour the berry mixture into the prepared cake pan, spreading it out in an even layer.

Make the Cobbler Topping

  • In another large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  • Pour the melted butter and milk into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix the batter.

Assembly and Baking

  • Drop spoonfuls of the cobbler topping over the berries. The topping will spread as it bakes, so it doesn't need to cover the berries completely.
  • Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the berry filling is bubbling. Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Serving and Storage

  • Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra special touch.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven before serving to refresh the topping.

Notes

Pro Tips: Use frozen berries straight from the freezer to prevent them from becoming mushy. For a crispy topping, sprinkle a bit of sugar over the dough before baking. Let the cobbler cool for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set. Experiment with different berry combinations to discover your favorite flavor profile.
Ingredient Substitutions: Substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend for a gluten-free dessert. Use coconut oil or vegan butter for a vegan version.
How to Serve: Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Storage & Freshness: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Make-Ahead Tips: Prepare the berry mixture and topping separately in advance. Assemble and bake when ready to serve.
