Alabama has some tasty fresh blackberries. Several decades ago, my mama was heading out to pick blackberries to make a cobbler, but she ended up going to the hospital to have me instead. This is her mama's blackberry cobbler recipe. The blackberries start on top but then end up tucked under a golden brown crust after it's baked. —Lisa Allen, Joppa, Alabama
