4cupsfresh blackberriesif using frozen, thaw and drain well
1/2cupgranulated sugar
2tablespoonscornstarch
1tablespoonlemon juice
1/2teaspoonvanilla extract
1/2teaspooncinnamon
For the Topping:
1homemade or store-bought pie crust
1eggbeaten
1tablespoonturbinado sugar
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine blackberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla extract and cinnamon. Gently mix until berries are well coated, and set aside. This will allow the berries to release some of their juices and help the flavors meld.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pour the blackberry filling into a 6x9-inch baking dish or similar-sized pie dish.
Roll out the chilled pie dough on a lightly floured surface until it's about 1/8-inch thick.
Arrange the pie crust on top of the blackberry filling, and make a small incision in the middle for steam to escape.
Brush the crust with the beaten egg and sprinkle with turbinado sugar for extra crunch.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the filling is bubbling and the crust is golden brown. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover loosely with foil.
Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. Enjoy it warm.
