Ingredients

  • 3 cups self rising flour 1 cup is for rolling out dough
  • 1 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 3 cups fresh blackberries

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 450 degrees for a cast iron skillet. Or 400 degrees for a metal or glass baking dish.
  • Then grease your cast iron skillet or baking dish.
  • In a bowl add your granulated sugar and 2 cups of self-rising flour. Give it a mix.
  • Stir in your buttermilk and mix until the batter comes together like biscuit dough. If too dry, add a bit more buttermilk to the batter.
  • Now gently fold in your blackberries.
  • Turn the dough out on a lightly floured surface. Sprinkle some of the remaining flour on the counter. Then work the dough by kneading it. You can add a little more flour if it is too sticky.
  • Roll the biscuit dough out with a rolling pin to around 1-inch thickness.
  • Then cut biscuits with 2 1/4 inch round cutter. Then place the biscuits in a skillet making sure the biscuits touch.
  • Place biscuits in a preheated oven in the center rack. Cook for 12-15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and biscuits are cooked through.
  • Once you remove from the oven spread your melted butter over the tops of the blackberry biscuits and serve up warm biscuits.
  • I dusted with sugar and served up the cast iron blackberry biscuits.

Notes

Blackberries - Fresh or frozen berries can be used in this recipe.
How to Make Self Rising Flour - If you don't have self rising flour you can make it. For every 1 cup of self rising flour you need 1 cup all purpose, 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Baking - Bake in a cast iron, baking sheet, or cake pan style dish. If you are not using a cast iron lower heat to 400 degrees.
