Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Unsalted butter, for the baking dish
6 cups blackberries
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 to 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
For the topping:
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar, plus more for sprinkling
2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 large egg
1/2 cup buttermilk

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and butter a 2-quart baking dish. Make the filling: Toss the blackberries, sugar, maple syrup and vanilla in a medium bowl. If the berries are juicy, toss with the flour. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
Make the topping: Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Using your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it looks like fine meal; set aside.
Whisk the egg, buttermilk and vanilla in a small bowl; stir into the flour mixture until just incorporated. Drop heaping spoonfuls of the batter evenly over the berries and sprinkle with sugar.
Set the dish on a baking sheet and bake until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling, about 40 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.
