Southern Living calls this a cobbler, but in reality, it's more like a crisp. There is no liquid in the batter; therefore, there are no characteristic dumplings on top of the fruit. Instead, there is a crispy, crunchy batter that is quite nice. Everyone who tasted this liked it a lot. SL made this recipe for blackberries; I adapted it for blueberries and raspberries; but any berry could be used, or a mixture. I added the jam and changed the all-purpose flour to a mixture of whole wheat and self-rising.
