1 1/2 cup flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
3/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup cold butter
1/4 cup boiling water
4 Tbsp. cornstarch
1/4 cup cold water
1 1/2 sugar
1 1/2 Tbsp. lemon juice
6 cups blackberries
Preheat oven to 400°.
In a large bowl, mix flour, 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in enough boiling water until mixture is evenly moist (may require a little more or less water).
In a large sauce pan, dissolve cornstarch with cold water. Mix in remaining 1 1/2 cup sugar, lemon juice and blackberries. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Transfer to 9x13 pan while very hot and quickly drop flattened dough pieces onto the fruit mixture. Quickly place in oven (otherwise dough will get soggy) and back for 25 minutes or until dough is golden brown.
**Can use a cast iron skillet.
**The dough is SO good, you may want to double it (making the dough layer a little thicker) while keeping the berry amount the same :).
**Try with other fruit as well (sliced peaches, apricots, raspberries, etc.)!
