Yummy! Could this be done in a non-cast iron skillet? I wish I had one but don’t so would have to improvise :-)
Also, do you think if I made this with blueberries and blackberries…it would work?
Oh, it looks so good and I am looking for a way to use up my blueberries and blackberries:-)

As long as the skillet is oven safe it will work.
I’m sure blueberries will work in there too. I’ve actually thought about substituting them, or doing a peach version as well with just a couple spice modifications.
I make blueberry pie every year with our harvest. If that sounds good to you, the link is Here.
This looks yummy.. .I think you can wrap a skillet’s handle in aluminum foil and use it in the oven.

I don’t think I’ve ever baked with blackberries. That looks good.
This looks so delicious and so simple! I love the pictures with it too. Thanks for sharing.
That looks good. I don’t know that I’ve ever had Blackberry Cobbler.
Oh my!! I love blackberries!
How awesome! It makes my tummy rumble… It’s so funny that you’ve been to the only 2 places that I have been on my list with weird names - Intercourse and Blue Ball… My husband’s family is from the Lancaster area, so we travel through a lot of these towns. Thanks for a great recipe.
looks good!
yum!! That looks scrumptious!!
Great photos.! My mouth is watering, and I’m imagining a huge scoop of vanilla ice cream slowly melting into the cobbler. Looks yummy! Thanks for sharing the recipe.
That looks so yummy!
I love things that can be made in one pan! Less mess to clean up! Looks delicious!
Oh man that looks good!!
You are the queen of making things I don’t think I would like look delicious! BUT, if I could substitute with blueberries, now we’re talking yummy!
I haven’t made blackberry cobbler in a LONG time. This looks so good, it’s really making me wish I still had blackberries growing in my back yard! Great photos!
That sounds yummy, yummy! Thanks for submitting it to The Make it From Scratch Carnival.
