How To Make Southern Blackberry Cobbler

3. In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Then add the milk and the melted butter. This will be your cobbler crust.
4. Now, pour your blackberry and sugar mixture into the baking dish, and spread the cobbler crust on top of the berries evenly.
5. All that’s left to do is bake it in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden. That’s it!

Storage Tips
