 Tips for the Best Crockpot Berry Cobbler

• Keep berries frozen – this is key. As they cook, they release liquid that creates the perfect cobbler texture.
• Mix the base well – make sure the cornstarch fully dissolves so there are no clumps.
• Do not mix the cake layer – this is what creates that buttery topping.
• Slice butter thin – the more coverage, the better the final texture.
• Use up to 24 oz berries – if you like it extra juicy (highly recommend)

Notes

• I used a standard size crockpot: 3.5 qts.

• No need to thaw the berries, just throw them into the crockpot and mix with the vanilla, lemon juice, and cornstarch. You must add the cornstarch for a gooey thick cobbler.

• Don’t mix in the cake mix, just sprinkle over and flatten as evenly as you can. Then add the slices of butter over the top.
