Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups Fresh blackberries, washed
- 1 cup Sugar
- 1 cup Flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup milk, half & half, or cream
- 1 Stick of unsalted butter, melted
Directions
-
First you should take care of the blackberry and sugar mixture because it needs to sit for a while. Stir together just the berries and sugar in a large bowl and let it sit out for 25-30 minutes. This will coax out the juices of the blackberries so that they can be sweetened up by the sugar, this is called mascerating.
-
After about 20 minutes, you should turn on the oven to about 375º and start preparing your batter.
-
Stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and milk, half & half OR cream with a wooden spoon. Next, stir in the melted butter and hand-mix it until the ingredients are well incorporated and you have few clumps.
-
Pick out a clean baking dish– smaller than 13 × 9 will do– pour in the batter and smooth it out. Finally, pour the macerated blackberries on top with all the sugar included and evenly distribute it over the batter.
-
Bake in the oven for 45 minutes to an hour, depending on how golden you prefer it to be. Let it set up for a good 15 minutes before serving (it will stay warm for a long time).
-
Serve warm or room temperature with ice cream or fresh whipped cream. You can store this at room temperature with foil over it for 2-3 days, probably longer in the fridge…but it never lasts that long.
