Blackberry Cobbler Recipe:
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour *
1/2 sugar (and a little to sprinkle on top)
1/4 cup oatmeal *
1 tsp. Baking powder
1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
1 cup plant based unsweetened milk (oil warm it up when using coconut oil)
1/3 cup vegan butter or coconut oil (warmed up to liquid form)
1-3 cups blackberries (depending on you preference - I like mine with lots of blackberries)
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
in a medium bowl wisk together the flour, sugar, oatmeal, baking powder and sugar
add milk and mix well
add butter (or oil if using)
Assemble:
pour batter into round baking dish*
drop blackberries into the batter and push them down just a little
add more berries on top if you like
to finish everything off, sprinkle some extra sugar on top
Bake:
put baking dish in the oven on the middle rack and back for about 30-40 min
let the cobble cool a little bit before serving
Serve:
serve with non dairy vanilla ice cream * or plant based whip cream
Notes:
Flour: you can use gluten free flour or almond flour, I wouldn’t recommend using coconut flour as that will absorb the liquid to much and make the cobbler too dry

Oatmeal: This is totally optional, I like to add it for extra texture (GF oatmeal would work as well)

Oil free: for an oil /butter free version, you can use unsweetened applesauce

Baking Dish: for one large cobbler use preferably a round 8” dish, I used smaller, single serve ones and had enough batter for three cobblers

❗️Hawthorn berries should not be eaten straight off the tree and need special preparation. I will be making a video about how to prepare hawthorn berries in various ways soon.
