Blackberry Cobbler -- As I journey through my own dietary changes, I am re-discovering the amazing flavour of blackberries.

Ingredients :
4 c fresh blackberries
1 ¼ c sugar (I use Stevia for fewer calories)
½ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp ground nutmeg
½ tsp finely minced fresh ginger
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp cornstarch
3 tbsp cold water
1 c all-purpose flour
1 ¼ tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
5 tbsp cold unsalted butter
¼ c buttermilk, chilled
Whipped cream or ice cream, for serving (optional)

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

In a medium saucepan, sprinkle the blackberries with 1/4 cup of the sugar. Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, vanilla extract, lemon juice, cornstarch, and cold water and toss well to combine. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Immediately pour the blackberry mixture into a 9-inch deep-dish pie tin or a greased glass or ceramic pie dish.

In a large bowl, combine the remaining 1 cup sugar, the flour, baking powder, and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal. While stirring, gradually add the buttermilk. Mix well to combine. Drop the dough by spoonfuls on top of the blackberries.

Bake until the dough is golden, 40 to 50 minutes.

Serve immediately with whipped cream or ice cream, if desired.
