There’s a massive blackberry bush in my backyard and I just picked ~6 pounds of blackberries and there’s plenty left.
Anyone got any ideas about what to do with a bunch of blackberries?
put them in the freezer, eat all winter

ooooh
Once again, the conservative, berry-heavy portfolio pays off for the hungry investor!
How could you have predicted this?
If I were in your position I’d just eat them, I can plow through blackberries like nobodies business. But for a normal human…jam?
Cobbler!
make a blackberry liqueur
oooooh yummy!
Pie
Blackberry Cobbler was always one of my favorites
Blackberry jam is super easy to make if you have a candy thermometer or equivalent. I don’t really eat jam on toast or w/e but do find it’s a nice change of pace for pancakes as a substitute (or addition to) syrup or compote.
Sorbet?
Not at all what I was expecting and started to wonder if BlackBerrys were back in style or something.
give some to your friends
I’ve given tons away already, I’m at a point where my friends and family don’t want anymore lol
Just curious. How many did you eat while picking them? I used to eat soany as a kid while picking them
One for the basket, one for me. Simple as
My mouth was black with juice lol, ate so many
Lmao I planted 25 of them what have I done
Yeah don’t plant blackberries lol, they take over the garden like crazy
I’m staying with my parents while ✨unemployed✨ and they just had tons of blackberries and now it’s tons of blueberries. In the last two weeks we’ve had:
Blueberry cake
Blueberry cobbler
Blueberry pie
Blueberry syrup on cheesecake
Blueberry jam on toast
Blueberry galette
Blueberry muffinsAll of which should work with blackberries. Fuck I love blackberries
Hell ya! Keep up the berrymaxxing
Sounds lovely!
Freeze them,.
Should be able to find some hot bath canning instructions for preserving them on a shelf (or in the fridge) in mason jars.
A half cup to a cup of fresh or frozen berries in a pan with a few table spoons of water, medium to high heat. Sugar to taste. Heat until boiling constantly stirring. Cook until its thick enough for you. Ta-da! Syrup!
Good in smoothies and in oatmeal.
Make some pancake batter, add some more flour to make it a bit thicker, drop some on a hot skillet. Let it firm up a bit then drop some berries and sugar/honey on top then cover with some more pancake batter. Flip it over. Poof, you’ve got some fruit fritter desert thingy.
