2 1/2 C Fresh blackberries, washed
1 C Sugar
1 C Flour
2 t Baking powder
1/2 t Salt
1 C Milk
1 Stick of butter, melted
Stir together just the berries and sugar in a large bowl and let it sit out for 25-30 minutes. This will bring out the juices of the blackberries so that they can be sweetened up by the sugar.
After about 20 minutes, you should turn on the oven to about 375º and start preparing your batter.
Stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and milk with a wooden spoon. Next, stir in the melted butter and hand-mix it until the ingredients are well mixed and you have few clumps.
Pick out a clean baking dish, a smaller one will do. Pour in the batter and smooth it out. Don’t grease the pan (there is enough butter in there already!). Finally, pour the blackberries on top with all the sugar included and evenly distribute it over the batter.
Bake for 45 minutes to an hour, depending on how golden you prefer it to be. Let it set up for a good 15 minutes so it will hold its shape. It will be quite hot, so be careful!
Serve warm or room temperature with warmed cream, fresh whipped cream, or vanilla ice cream. You can store this at room temperature with foil over it for 2-3 days, probably longer in the fridge.
