Blackberry Cobbler

"This Blackberry Cobbler is one of those easy summer desserts that’s impossible not to fall in love with. The tart blackberries turn syrupy and sweet in the oven, while the crème fraiche biscuits become nice and golden brown for that delightful combination of textures that cobbler is known for. This recipe can use fresh or frozen berries, but I recommend going with fresh when in blackberry season! Serve it with a side of vanilla ice cream on a hot summer day, and you’ll understand why this is a classic Southern Dessert. Whether you make it with pie crust, dumplings, streusel, or biscuits, the top crust of a cobbler makes all the difference. And there’s no right answer on how to make it! Depending on who you ask, that is. Personally, I like to use créme fraiche biscuits when I have fresh berries. They’re slightly sweet, light, and not as dense as a buttermilk biscuit, which makes them perfect as a cobbler topping. Créme fraiche is rich, creamy, and naturally a little sweet, a little vanilla paste added to the batter really makes these biscuits shine. "
