Blackberry Cinnamon Roll Cobbler

This Cinnamon Roll Cobbler is one you’ll be making again and again.

While I am certainly partial to the blackberry flavor, you can take this base cinnamon roll cobbler recipe and use any frozen berry you’d like.

Try it with frozen blueberries, frozen strawberries and even frozen raspberries.

This Blackberry Cobbler is the perfect holiday dessert and I love serving it up on Thanksgiving alongside some pie.

Helpful Tips:

  • You will have some cinnamon rolls leftover, unfortunately. However, If you have an oval casserole dish that’s about 3 quarts, you can reduce the amount of cinnamon rolls to 10 and not have any cinnamon rolls leftover. Unfortunately, mine was left out when I made this. 
  • The cinnamon rolls will be a deep golden brown. However, they won’t burn because the juices from the berries keep them moist. I suggest checking your cobbler at the 30-minute mark as each oven is different. Be sure to check the middle cinnamon rolls as those are the ones that take the longest to cook through. 
  • You can use fresh or frozen berries. You do not have to thaw the blackberries before using them, if you’re using frozen. They will thaw up some as they sit in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
