Blackberry Cobbler Recipe with Brown Sugar Pecan Crust (1)

Blackberry cobbler is one of my favorite desserts to make. When berries are in season and bursting with flavor, there’s nothing better than adding them to a cobbler for a sweet, delicious dessert. I used to help my grandmother and my mother make blackberry cobbler, and now I make my own. I’ve been making this particular recipe for a long time. I started changing things up a bit ago to add a little twist to my cobblers. That’s when I started adding the brown sugar pecan crust that makes this dessert so absolutely fantastic. And bonus: it’s super easy to make, too!

Blackberry Cobbler Recipe

This recipe starts with juicy ripe blackberries mixed with sugar and a few other ingredients. Next, it’s topped with a cobbler batter that has all the classic taste and texture that we love in the recipe. Lastly, I add a little something extra with a brown sugar pecan crust that’s both sweet and crunchy to create a cobbler that’s loaded with a variety of both flavors and textures.

Yes. Mix the frozen berries with the other filling ingredients just as if they were fresh. You don’t even have to thaw them!

Can you prepare cobbler ahead of time?

You can prepare the filling ahead of time, but I don’t recommend making the batter or the brown sugar pecan topping in advance.

Yes, you should always refrigerate your cobbler for maximum freshness and to avoid bacterial growth and a mushy topping.
