Serving Size / Yield

6-8 servings

Ingredients

  • Dough:
  • 1 1/2 C. all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 C. sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 9 Tbs. cold butter
  • 1/3 C. boiling water
  • Filling:
  • 2 Tbs. corn starch
  • 1/4 C. cold water
  • 1 Tbs. lemon juice
  • 4 C. fresh blackberries
  • 1/2 C. sugar

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. For the dough, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl. Cut in the butter until you have a coarse, crumbly mixture. Pour in the boiling water and stir together well so that all of the dough is wet. Set aside. For the berries, dissolve the cornstarch in the cold water in a medium bowl. Add the lemon juice, berries, and sugar. Mix together well. Transfer berries to a 10 inch cast iron pan. Heat mixture over medium heat until boiling, stirring frequently. Remove from heat. Drop spoonfuls of dough over the berry mixture and place the cast iron pan on a foil lined cookie sheet and place in the oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the dough is golden brown and the berries are thick and bubbly. (If you don’t have a cast iron pan, bring to a boil in a sauce pan and bake in a 9×9 baking dish.)
