Yesterday I promised you that I would dedicate these warm months ahead to taking things back to simple. I know that I don’t want to spend a whole lot of time in the kitchen or working on prep for anything when it’s warm & gorgeous outside.

We have spent so much time working on our yard & house that I want to be out enjoying it. But I want to enjoy it while having a delicious treat after a long day. So I whipped up this Simple Blackberry Cobbler with just 3 ingredients I always have on hand – popped it in the oven for about an hour & we had an amazing dessert.

The kids were loving it because they absolutely freak over blackberries. I’m loving it because it’s easy, quick & oh so yummy. What could be better??

3-ingredient cobbler

I’m definitely in full “simple” mode. It’s like once the temps got high enough that I pulled out the flip flops & lost the sweatshirt – I wanted things to get less complicated.

I mentioned that I have so many things on my list for the house this summer. Literally, have projects to last until fall. So with all that time spent doing that (which I love because I love making my house more personal for us) I have less & less time to be making treats. But I still want them – I just have to be more creative & make them more streamlined.

Here are some commonly asked questions

Do I have to thaw the berries first?

Yes- please thaw them and pat them dry before continuing with the recipe. Frozen berries tend to cook out a lot more moisture – so the cobbler may be soggier when using frozen vs fresh.

How to store leftover cobbler

I like to cover the dish and keep it in the refrigerator. Since this recipe is best when warm, just serve in a microwave-safe bowl or plate and microwave for 1-2 minutes or until hot.

Can I use another flavor of cake mix?

Yes, absolutely, that will work just fine. I have used white, yellow, and even chocolate when I didn’t have a box of vanilla.

Can this be made with canned fruit?

I have not tried it with canned berries, like a pie filling. But I have made this with canned peaches (drained) and that turned out fantastic.

Ingredients for Blackberry Cobbler

• blackberries – thawed and patted dry
• french vanilla cake mix
• clear soda

Tips for finding the best blackberries

• buy local whenever possible – this will give you the best/freshest berries
• look for black or dark purple all the way to the top. If there is pink or lighter color at the top – the berries aren’t quite ripe yet
• visit a pick your own berry farm – these make for a great family experience. The kids love it.
• shop the farmers market – the next best thing to pick your own, still local and fresh – with all the work cut out for you
• if you live in a place where blackberry bushes are in abundance (Pacific Northwest) I strongly recommend stopping by the corner fruit stand and picking up a flat of berries.

What to serve with a blackberry cobbler?

Because we typically serve this cobbler at a potluck – we usually like to pair it with all our favorite grilling dishes. Anything we would serve at a backyard bbq is the perfect main or side dish to this cobbler. Here are some of our favorites…

• baby back ribs
• sea salt garlic corn on the cob
• potato salad
• strawberry jello salad
• grilled pork chops
• easy fruit salad
• garlic butter salmon
• grilled chicken wings
