I was SO excited to find out we were cooking with blackberries for the #GYCO challenge. I don't think I've ever cooked with them before. *thinks* Um...4 berry jam. That's about it. And it was frozen berry mix. Does that count? Yes?
*shrugs*
There was one thing I had been DYING to try since I read about it, but never did just get the nerve to do it. But you'll see that one tomorrow. *hehehehehehehehehe*
So...I did a bit of brainstorming with this time, too. Wanna see some other ideas I had? Yeah? YAY! Okay...here goes:
Blackberry Jam
Blackberry Scones
Chocolate Waffles with Blackberry Syrup
Blackberry Barbecue Sauce
Blackberry Sticky Buns
Blackberry Chocolate Bread Pudding
Those are just a few. I may still try the blackberry barbecue sauce and the bread pudding. I KNOW I can make a kickass blackberry jam. My 4 berry is TO DIE FOR! I think I still have a jar in the pantry...next to the hot pepper jelly. #nomz!
Well, since it's summer time and that always leads me to berry cobblers, that's what I was going to do. But I didn't really want to make a traditional cobbler. I mean, to me that would kind of be un-original and un-creative! I mean, this IS a challenge right? So I needed to challenge myself to do something unusual for me.
And, well, since I was on this cornbread kick, I thought...why not cornbread cobbler? Sounds good to me!
So. Here is my Blackberry Cornbread Cobbler!
Preheat oven to 350. Combine cornstarch, sugar, and berries in a mixing bowl. Set aside.
Combine cornmeal, flour, baking powder and salt in a mixing bowl. Mix the yogurt, egg substitute, and 1/2 cup sugar in a small mixing bowl. Add to dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Pour the berry mixture into a 9 x 12 casserole dish coated with cooking spray.
Spread the cornmeal mixture over top.
Bake covered 20 minutes. Bake uncovered 20 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Cool slightly before serving.
ENJOY!
