- 1 cup strawberries, hulled and quartered - 1 cup blueberries - 1 cup raspberries - 1 cup granulated sugar, divided - 2 tablespoons cornstarch - 1 tablespoon lemon juice - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract - 1 cup all-purpose flour - 1½ teaspoons baking powder - ½ teaspoon salt - ½ cup unsalted butter, melted - ½ cup milk - 1 teaspoon cinnamon (for sprinkling) When making a triple berry cobbler, fresh berries are a must. Strawberries add sweetness, blueberries bring a mild flavor, and raspberries offer a tart kick. You can mix these berries together, and they create a colorful and vibrant dessert. You will also need sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice for the berry mixture. These ingredients help to sweeten the berries and thicken the juices. Vanilla extract adds a warm flavor that pairs well with the fruit. For the cobbler batter, you will use flour, baking powder, salt, melted butter, and milk. These form a thick batter that sits on top of the berries. Finally, sprinkle cinnamon on top for a hint of spice. With these ingredients ready, you can create a delightful dessert that shines with berry goodness. {{ingredient_image_1}} To start, you need to combine the berries. Take 1 cup each of strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries. Put them in a mixing bowl. Next, add ½ cup of granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons of cornstarch, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Toss everything gently until the berries are coated. Let this mix marinate for 15 minutes. This step helps the berries release their juices and enhances their flavor. While the berries marinate, you can make the batter. In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, the remaining ½ cup of sugar, 1½ teaspoons of baking powder, and ½ teaspoon of salt. Mix well to combine. Then, pour in ½ cup of melted unsalted butter and ½ cup of milk. Stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; you want a light batter. Now it’s time to assemble your cobbler. Take a lightly greased 9x9 inch baking dish. Pour the marinated berry mixture evenly across the bottom. Then, dollop the cobbler batter over the berries, spreading it gently. It's fine if some berries peek through. For a nice touch, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of cinnamon on top. Bake your cobbler in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 35 to 40 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when the top is golden brown and the berries are bubbling. Once baked, let the cobbler cool for about 10 minutes before serving. This helps the juices settle, making it easier to serve. Enjoy your delicious triple berry cobbler! To get the best cobbler texture, mix the batter just enough. Stir gently, and do not overmix. This keeps it light and fluffy. For the berries, marinate them for 15 minutes. This adds flavor and helps them soften. Mix them with sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla. Toss them well so every berry gets coated. Adding vanilla extract boosts the flavors in your cobbler. It gives it a warm aroma. A sprinkle of cinnamon on top adds spice and warmth. For serving, consider toppings like whipped cream or chocolate sauce. These can make your dessert even more special. Serve your cobbler warm for the best taste. A scoop of vanilla ice cream on top creates a perfect pairing. The cold ice cream melts slightly, blending with the warm cobbler. Garnish with fresh berries to add color and freshness. This makes your dish look beautiful and inviting. Pro Tips Use Fresh Berries: For the best flavor and texture, always opt for fresh, ripe berries. Frozen berries can be used, but they may release more liquid and alter the cobbler's consistency. Let the Berries Marinate: Allowing the berries to sit with sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice for 15 minutes helps enhance their natural sweetness and allows the flavors to meld beautifully. Don’t Overmix the Batter: When combining the batter ingredients, stir just until combined. Overmixing can lead to a dense cobbler rather than a light and fluffy texture. Cool Before Serving: Allow the cobbler to cool for at least 10 minutes after baking. This helps set the filling and makes it easier to serve without falling apart. {{image_2}} You can switch up the berries in this cobbler. Raspberries, blackberries, or even mixed berries work great. Each berry brings its own flavor. If you want a deeper taste, try adding more blackberries. You can also mix frozen and fresh berries. Just remember to thaw the frozen ones first. This keeps the texture nice and juicy. If you need a gluten-free option, use almond flour or a gluten-free blend. These work well in the cobbler. You can also reduce the sugar for a healthier treat. Try using natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup. This will still give you that sweet taste without using too much sugar. For a twist, add citrus zest like lemon or orange. This gives a nice bright flavor. You can also sprinkle in some spices, like nutmeg or ginger, to enhance the taste. Want some crunch? Toss in nuts or granola. They give a nice texture that pairs well with the soft berries. To keep your cobbler fresh, store it in the fridge. Place the leftovers in an airtight container. This will help keep the cobbler moist and tasty. If you do not have a container, cover it tightly with plastic wrap. It’s best to eat the leftovers within three days for the best flavor. You can freeze your cobbler for later. If you freeze it before baking, wrap it well in plastic wrap and then foil. This helps avoid freezer burn. For baked cobbler, let it cool completely. Then, place it in an airtight container. When you are ready to eat it, thaw it in the fridge overnight. To reheat, bake it at 350°F (175°C) for about 20 minutes.
