Ingredients

6 cups fresh or frozen berries
1/2 cup, plus 4 tablespoons sugar
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1/2 whole zest of lemon
2 cups flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 half sticks (8 tbsp.) Land O Lakes® Unsalted Butter, cut into 1 tbsp. slices
1 whole egg
1/2 cup milk

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine berries, ½ cup sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a mixing bowl. Stir and spread out in a greased dish.

In a separate bowl pour flour, salt, baking powder, and 1 tablespoon sugar. Add Land O Lakes® Unsalted Butter slices and work mixture together with a pastry blender (or your fingers) until the mixture is coarse. Measure ½ cup milk, add an egg, and mix together. Pour into flour mixture, stirring as you go. Mixture should be smooth and not dry, but not too sticky.

Take clumps of dough and place them on top of the blackberries. Lightly flatten dough with your fingertips. Sprinkle with 2 to 3 tablespoons of sugar and bake until golden for 30 minutes. Berry juice will be slightly thin, but it will gradually soak into the topping.

Serve with vanilla ice cream.
