Ingredients

• 4 cups fresh blackberries
• 0.75 cups granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 0.25 cups water
• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 0.5 cups whole milk
• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch baking dish and set it aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the blackberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and water. Stir gently and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the mixture begins to thicken. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 4

Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix the milk and vanilla extract. Gradually add this to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the blackberry filling, leaving some gaps for the filling to bubble through.

Step 7

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through, and the blackberry filling is bubbling.

Step 8

Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
