Method
Prepare the fruit filling
- Wash and prepare the blackberries, removing any stalks as you go.
- Peel, core and dice the cooking apples. (If you're using eating apples then you may choose to leave the skins on.)
- Add these to the pie dish to make a nice fruit layer. Sprinkle the sugar and the cinnamon over the fruit along with 1 tablespoon of cornflour.
- Gently mix these ingredients together.
- Preheat the oven to 375F/190C/170C Fan
Make the Cobbler topping
- Add the flour, baking powder and salt to a bowl along with the butter.
- Rub the fat into the flour until it resembles breadcrumbs.
- Stir in the sugar. Add in 2/3 of the milk and stir to make a fairly wet, soft dough. Use more of the milk if the dough seems too dry.
- Spoon the soft dough over the fruit in a fairly organic fashion. You are not looking to make a smooth topping, just dot it over the fruit.
- The cobbler needs to cook for between 35 and 45 minutes when it should be golden brown and the fruit will be bubbling underneath.
- Remove from the oven and serve in your favourite way.
