Yield Serves 10

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup sugar
2 cups plus 1 tablespoon self-rising flour (see Note)
2 cups fresh blackberries
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, cold, cut into small pieces
1/2-2/3 cup milk
Vanilla ice cream for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F. Butter a 1-quart casserole dish or baking pan.
  • In a medium saucepan combine the sugar, 1 tablespoon of the flour, berries, and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 2 minutes, then remove from the heat and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, use a pastry blender or two knives to cut the butter into the remaining 2 cups flour. Stir in just enough milk to make a soft dough that pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Turn the dough out on a lightly floured board and pat into a square. Use a rolling pin to roll it to 1/2 inch thick. Cut the dough into 2-inch-wide strips.
  • Pour 1 cup of the blackberry mixture into the bottom of the pan. Arrange half of the dough strips on top of the blackberry mix, placing them close together. Bake until brown, about 12 minutes, then remove from the oven and pour the remaining berry mixture over the baked strips. Arrange another layer of dough strips on top and bake for 12 more minutes, or until brown. Serve warm with ice cream.
  • From Trisha
  • The last time I made this, I didn't have time to make homemade pastry, so I tried store-bought refrigerated roll-out pastry shells and cut them into strips. It worked great!
  • Note
  • If you don't have self-rising flour, substitute 2 cups all-purpose flour mixed with 3 teaspoons baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
