Recipe Round-up: 25 Great Blackberry Recipes

As this year’s blackberry season comes to a close, I figured it might be nice to post a recipe round-up of some great blackberry recipes from some of my favorite food blogs. I don’t know about the rest of the country, but here in Washington we had a great crop of wild blackberries this summer. My area of the state had such a cool, cloudy July that I was worried the berries wouldn’t make an appearance, but the end of August brought in a mini-heat wave and the bushes exploded with huge, juicy berries. Yay! I’ve been trying to use up these delicious berries as much as I can before the cold months arrive, and I’ve picked 3 gallon-sized bags’ worth of blackberries to freeze so that I can still enjoy them in the dead of winter. It’s so nice to have a little taste of summer when the weather is cold and dreary.

So take a look at some of these fantastic recipes–they’re perfect to celebrate the last few weeks of blackberries before fall sets in!
