Instructions:
Berry Prep: In a mixing bowl, caress the blackberries with sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and zest. Let them mingle and set aside.
Golden Elixir: In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Continue cooking until it turns a golden brown hue, wafting a nutty aroma. Set aside.
Topping Time: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Slowly stir in the milk until combined. Now, pour in the browned butter, blending until a smooth batter forms.
Assembly: Pour the blackberry mixture into a greased baking dish. Drizzle the brown butter batter over the berries, ensuring an even spread.
Bake to Perfection: In a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C), bake for 35-40 minutes. Look for a golden crust and bubbling berries.
Rest & Relish: Allow the cobbler to cool slightly. Serve warm, perhaps with a scoop of vanilla ice cream 🍨, and let the flavors transport you
