Guys, I’m not much of a baker. I say it all the time. I don’t have the talent, patience, or desire for it.
But this recipe is amazing and requires absolutely no baking skills of any kind.
You have just met the best easy brunch idea guys.
Let’s go over some really easy FAQ.
Ingredients
See recipe card at the bottom of post for quantities and full instructions
- Sugar
- Self Rising Flour- it contains a leavening agent that helps make baked goods rise. It’s often used to make biscuits and other fluffy baked goods.
- Whole Milk
- Butter
- Blackberries– fresh or frozen
- Vanilla Ice Cream– for serving, optional
Homemade Self Rising Flour
- 1 + 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt for each cup of flour.
How to Make The Pioneer Woman’s Blackberry Cobbler
- Combine the 1 cup sugar and 1 cup self-rising flour. Add 1 cup whole milk and 1/2 stick melted butter.
- Add to a (9 x 9) casserole dish and top with 2 cups blackberries.
- Sprinkle 1/4 cup sugar on top and bake at 350° F for 50 minutes.
- Add 2 Tablespoons sugar and bake for 10 more minutes.
- Serve with vanilla ice scream and serve.
Using Frozen Berries
- Frozen berries work well in this recipe as well, be sure to add them when they’re frozen. If you let them thaw, they’ll be mushy and the consistency will be off.
Alternative Berry Options
- Blueberries
- Raspberries
- Strawberries
- Peaches
or use a combination of several!
How to Store Leftover Cobbler
- Baked Cobbler can be covered and stored at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Freezing Leftover Cobbler
- This Cobbler can be frozen and it’s best if you do so after it’s been baked due to the leavening agent in the flour.
- To reheat, let it thaw overnight and bake it in a covered oven-safe dish at 350° until heated through. The amount of time will depend on how much you’re heating.
- You can also reheat in the microwave.
Best Pan Sizes For This Recipe
- A 9 x 9 inch pan works well for this recipe. If using a 9 x 13 pan, consider doubling the recipe for thicker results.
What to Serve with Blackberry Cobbler
…Just kidding. I just want to see if you’re paying attention. The obvious answer is vanilla ice cream.
Should you choose to omit this very important addition, I will find you…ice cream in hand.

The Pioneer Women's Blackberry Cobbler
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups + 2 tablespoons sugar, separated
- 1 cup self-rising flour, see notes for easy homemade version
- 1 cup milk, any kind, whole is best
- 1/2 stick butter, melted. (equal to 4 tbsp.)
- 2 cups fresh or frozen blackberries, rinsed and patted dry.
- Vanilla ice cream, for serving
Instructions
- Note: If using frozen berries, be sure to add them when they're frozen. If you let them thaw, they'll be mushy, and the consistency will be off.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine 1 cup of sugar with the flour in a large bowl.
- Stir in the milk, then the melted butter. Mix until well-combined.
- Pour onto the bottom of a greased 9 x 9 inch baking dish.
- Distribute the berries throughout the top. They’ll sink in further as they bake.
- Sprinkle ¼ cup sugar over the top, reserving 2 tablespoons for later.
- Bake for 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons sugar on top.
- Bake for 10 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
- Serve immediately, (with ice cream of course)!
Notes
- To make Homemade Self Rising Flour: 1 cup flour + ½ tsp of salt + 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- Alternative berry options include blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, peaches, or a combination of several!
- Sometimes I'll reserve some of the berries and add them 30 minutes into baking so that they set closer to the top.
- If you adjust the number servings for this recipe at the top of the recipe card: The written information remains the same, the quantities only update in the ingredient list.

I’ve made this 5 times and everyone loves it. I froze portions to use this winter as well.It’s good with whipped cream for those who don’t want to get icecream.
I’m so happy to hear you’ve been enjoying the cobbler Paul! Whipped cream is a great call! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review!😍
Excellent and easy
Thanks Debbie! Happy to hear you enjoyed it!😍
Best cobbler recipe ever. Have made others like this but all called for fruit mascerating in sugar. This was wonderful.
I’m so happy you enjoyed the cobbler Candace! This is one of my favorite desserts. Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review!😍
Absolutely delicious, followed the recipe to the letter although substituted the dairy to the vegan alternative. I served it with homemade vegan banana and pecan ice-cream. It was heaven in a bowl.
I’m so happy you were able to enjoy this with a vegan alternative Sarah! I love serving this with a scoop of ice cream 😋 Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review!
What do you suggest to make it not stick to the bottom of the pan?
I’ve never had issues with it sticking but you can always butter or lightly grease the bottom of the pan.
So easy and so delicious. I love blackberries so I used 3 cups and then added a few more about 35 minutes in to baking. Had to add about 5 minutes to baking time due to extra moisture of the blackberries. So yummy will definitely make again. Thank you!!
SO happy to hear that Cathy! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review! 🙂
I just made this and its very good.You know 4 cups of blackberries for a 13×9 isn’t very many so I upped it to 6 cups.My wife and I picked those berries in less than an hour and we were eating some at the same time.My 2 lewellin setters were scarfing up the low berries,too.Every so often one would let out a yelp when they got thorned. I used a double recipe but put 4 cup of berries on the bottom,batter over them and then the last 2 cups on the top of the batter. I broiled the last 2 tbs of sugar to a nice glaze.
I’m so happy you and your wife enjoyed this recipe Paul!❤️ Sounds like you had some very fresh berries! Thanks so much for taking the time to comment and review!
This is my go to recipe. I LOVE it. It’s so easy to make, so delicious and my family devours it. Great way to use up last day fruit. I have made it with raspberries, blueberries, blackberries and combinations of berries. Thanks PW….
Yayyy! I’m so happy to hear that Lynne! This has been such a hit with everyone I make it for!😍 Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review!
Made this cobbler fresh peaches and a dash of cinnamon and served with vanilla ice cream. I did cut the total sugar by 4 T
As ice cream is plenty sweet.
Never going back to other recipes!!
So happy that you enjoyed it Mary!
I made this today, Sunday morning, with the blackberries out of grandma’s garden, we have LOADS of them. I’ve never made a cobbler before and this turned out perfect! Thanks for the recipe. I’m going to make it over and over again since we have so many berries.
I’m so happy you enjoyed this one Kelly! You can’t beat fresh blackberries. We have a couple of bushes around our property and it is the absolute best😋! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review!
