Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and cinnamon until evenly mixed.
Add the cold butter, and using two forks or a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles pea-sized pieces.
Add the buttermilk and gently fold until a shaggy dough forms. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
Preheat the oven to 375°F with the oven rack in the middle position.
In a 10-inch cast iron skillet, combine half of the blackberries, sugar, salt, lemon zest, and lemon juice, and cook over medium heat.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with the cold water to make a slurry. Once the berries soften, stir in the cornstarch mixture and simmer for about 2 minutes until thickened.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the remaining blackberries.
Scoop portions of the biscuit dough onto the blackberry mixture, pressing them gently and brushing them with melted butter.
Bake the cobbler in the oven for about 35-38 minutes until the filling is bubbling and the biscuits are golden brown.
Remove from oven, let it sit for 15 minutes, then serve and enjoy.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg to the biscuit mix.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful dessert experience.
Make sure your butter is very cold for a flaky biscuit texture.
