Iâve tweaked this recipe a few times, and everyone enjoys it. You can use frozen blackberries, but fresh are best. The lime zest really complements the sweet fruit, and the sour cream pastry is delightful. âKimberly Reisinger, Spring, Texas Ingredients:
6 cups fresh or frozen blackberries |
1/2 cup sugar |
3 tablespoons cornstarch |
1 teaspoon grated lime peel |
sour cream pastry: |
1-1/3 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
3 tablespoons sugar, divided |
3/4 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
7 tablespoons cold butter, divided |
1/2 cup sour cream |
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream |
Directions:
1. Place the blackberries in a large bowl. Combine the sugar, cornstarch and lime peel; sprinkle over berries and gently toss to coat. Pour into a greased 9-in. square baking dish.
2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda; cut in 5 tablespoons butter until crumbly. Combine sour cream and heavy cream; gradually add to crumb mixture, tossing with a fork until mixture forms a ball.
