Black and Blue Cobbler Recipe

Filling ingredients:
1/4 cup sugar
3 tbsp flour
1/2 tsp cinnamon
6 cups blackberries, picked over, rinsed and drained



Directions:
Preheat oven to 425. For the filling, in a large bowl, mix together the sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Add the blackberries and toss to coat. Pour the berry mixture into a 2 quart baking dish.

Prepare the topping, and drop the dough by rounded tablespoons over the berries to cover. Place the baking dish on a cookie sheet to catch any drips, and place baking dish in oven. Bake for 16-18 minutes, or until filling is bubbly and the topping is nicely browned and is no longer doughy.

Topping ingredients:
1-1/2 cups unbleached flour
1/2 cup cornmeal, either blue or yellow
3 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
4 tbsp cold butter, cut into small pieces
1-1/2 cups heavy cream

Directions:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the butter pieces, and rub the butter and flour together with your fingers until no lumps of butter remain. Add the cream and stir until a dough forms.
