Blackberry desserts are a treat we don’t see enough of in restaurants and cafes. With their deep, inky color and sweet flavor, it’s a shame they aren’t featured more often. While they’re in season from May to October, blackberries are a delight any time of the year.

1.Blackberry White Chocolate S’mores

Ready for a twist on the classic campfire treat? These white chocolate s’mores are perfect for your next backyard bash or gathering.

They’re still sweet, but the white chocolate adds a creamy dimension that will make them a new favorite. Give them a try–they’re sure to be a hit!

2.Blackberry Jam Recipe

Ditch the store-bought jams loaded with sugar and make your own at home! It’s the perfect time with berries in season.

Cornstarch is a great thickener for that perfect jam texture, but feel free to skip it for a thinner consistency. The spices are optional, but they add a lovely touch that complements the fruit beautifully.

Homemade jam has never been this easy or delicious–give it a try and enjoy the difference!

3.Blackberry Scones

These blackberry bars add a fun twist to traditional scones! Since the berries are larger than typical raisins, it’s best to make the scones a bit bigger too.

This way, the juicy blackberries won’t overpower the dough and keep it from getting soggy. The result? A perfect treat with the right balance of tender scone and sweet, fruity flavor.

4.Blackberry, Almond, and Rosemary Tart

Frangipane is something everyone should know how to make. This simple almond tart is crazy versatile, quick to make, and a show-stopper at any event.

It’s a simple combination of a buttery pastry shell, a layer of blackberry jam (or strawberry, raspberry, or apricot, if you prefer), frangipane filling, and extra fruit over the top.

All it needs to serve is a simple dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of vanilla glaze.

5.Vegan Blackberry Cheesecake

This vegan cheesecake is as stunning as it is delicious, with colors that are totally Instagram-worthy.

While it’s gluten-free and plant-based, keep in mind that vegan cheesecakes can take a bit more time to prepare–especially if you’re skipping gelatin.

From soaking cashews to adding a few extra touches in the base, this isn’t a quick-fix dessert. But trust us, the wait is worth it.

Just make sure you’ve got a solid blender and some patience to let it set. The end result is absolutely worth the effort!

6.Cardamom-Blackberry Linzer Cookies

Cardamom is one of those unique spices that can be tricky to get just right in baking–use too much, and it can overpower everything.

But this recipe nails it, delivering a subtle yet distinct flavor that’s both fruity and slightly minty.

Blackberries are the perfect match for cardamom, but feel free to mix things up with raspberries or even a swirl of pear jam if that’s what you have on hand.

7.Blackberry Granita

Granitas are like a fancier version of shaved ice, but with a flavorful twist–the mix is seasoned before freezing. Making it at home is a breeze!

Simply puree blackberries with lime juice, salt, and water, then strain and freeze. For an extra kick, you can add crème de cassis, but it’s totally optional.

The secret to getting that perfect, fluffy texture? Let it start freezing, then scrape it with a fork. Pop it back in the freezer and repeat until it’s light and airy.

The result is a sweet and tangy treat that’s as refreshing as it is easy to make. Perfect for a light dessert or a cool pick-me-up any time of day!

8.Blackberry Pie Bars

Let me just say it again: I’m totally obsessed with these fruity bars! They’re a breeze to make, and the best part? You can switch up the filling to create endless flavor combinations.

The crust is a simple mix of sugars, flour, and butter (plus a few secret extras) that presses perfectly into a baking dish. The trick to getting that perfect crumble topping?

Don’t cover the whole thing–let the fruit peek through and bubble up for that extra oomph!

9.Blackberry Bread Pudding

Saturday mornings often bring a little leftover bread that’s gone stale. Why not turn it into a creamy, sweet, and fruity treat that’s just as perfect for dessert as it is for breakfast?

A pro tip: keep the fruit nestled in the middle to avoid any burning.

For the ultimate experience, prep it the night before–letting it chill in the fridge allows the bread to soak up all that delicious custard flavor.

Wake up to a dish that’s as comforting as it is tasty!

10.Blackberry Panna Cotta

The first time you make panna cotta and it turns out smooth, creamy, and perfectly set, you’ll be hooked. From there, the possibilities for flavors are endless! But there’s something special about this blackberry version.

Instead of the usual pink hue of strawberry or raspberry, this one boasts a stunning purple color that’s sure to impress. Plus, the combination of creamy texture and fruity blackberry flavor is absolutely delicious.

It’s a must-try for anyone who loves a sweet and tangy dessert!

11.Blackberry Turnovers

With store-bought pie dough, fresh blackberries, a bit of sugar, and eggs, you’ve got all you need for these charming hand pies. Why not call them breakfast turnovers?

They’re packed with fruit, making them a healthier start to your day. For a twist, try cutting the dough into squares to reduce waste.

Simply fold one corner to the other for triangular treats instead of traditional half-moons. These little pies are the perfect blend of easy and delicious!

12.Blackberry Brownies

Looking for a fresh twist on dessert? Try adding blackberries to your brownies! While strawberries, raspberries, and cherries are classic chocolate pairings, blackberries bring something special to the table.

Brownies are the perfect base because they’re rich and deeply chocolatey, so the fruit doesn’t take over–it just adds sweet, fruity pops of flavor. The best part?

You can use your favorite brownie recipe or even a box mix. Just scatter the berries on top and bake. It’s an easy way to create a dessert that’s perfectly balanced and totally indulgent.

13.Old-Fashioned Blackberry Cobbler

Don’t let this look fool you–it’s not just another blackberry pie. This is an old-fashioned cobbler through and through, and you can tell by its triple-layer pastry goodness.

It starts with a layer of pie dough in the baking dish, topped with half of the fruit.

Then comes a layer of pre-cooked pastry in the middle, followed by the rest of the fruit and a pie lid to top it all off.

And if you’re feeling extra creative, you can swap that top layer for a crumble or biscuit cobbler instead. It’s all the classic flavors you love, just with an extra-special touch.

14.Homemade Blackberry Pie

This blackberry pie is a showstopper with its deep, rich purple hue that seems to change shades depending on the light. The fresh blackberries add vibrant pops of color that make each bite feel special.

What really sets this pie apart is the texture–blackberries keep their firmness, giving you a satisfying bite without turning mushy like some other berries.

It’s a refreshing twist that lets the natural charm of the fruit shine through.

15.Blackberry Limeade Popsicle

Homemade popsicles are a blast to make and offer a slightly healthier treat option.

The combination of zesty lime juice and tart blackberries creates an insanely delicious flavor duo that’s as vibrant as it is tasty.

For a creamier twist, try blending coconut cream into the fruit puree–it takes these popsicles to the next level!

16.Chocolate Blackberry Crumble

Looking for another way to enjoy blackberries? Here’s a fresh twist that puts those juicy berries right in the spotlight.

Imagine a dessert that’s like blackberry pie bars but with a twist–this time, the crumble topping is packed with almond flour, flaked coconut, chopped pecans, and chocolate chips. The result?

A buttery, crunchy topping that adds texture and flavor to the sweet-tart berries. It’s a match made in heaven!

17.Blackberry Lime Cake

Here’s another fantastic blackberry-lime combo! This lime cake is bright, moist, and versatile–pair it with coconut, raspberry, or just a dollop of whipped cream for a simple treat. But the real star? The blackberry-lime frosting.

It’s all about letting the natural flavors shine, creating something beautifully delicious without any fuss. The sweetness of the blackberries balances perfectly with the zesty lime, making this frosting the perfect finishing touch.

It’s fresh, flavorful, and sure to impress!

18.Blackberry Bread

Looking for a delicious twist on classic banana bread? Give this incredible blackberry bread a shot–it’s sure to impress! This recipe yields a super moist, slightly dense loaf that’s packed with flavor.

For an extra-special touch, try creaming room-temperature butter with the sugars instead of using melted butter–it makes a big difference. Just remember, gentle stirring is key.

Mix the batter until everything comes together, but avoid over-mixing to keep it nice and tender.

19.Lemon Blackberry Breakfast Cookies

Breakfast cookies? Sign me up! These treats are packed with blackberries, bananas, applesauce, and oats, making them a delicious and hearty start to your day. Best of all, they’re free from gluten, eggs, and dairy.

Each bite is a perfect mix of sweet, chewy, fruity, and zesty–just like your favorite oatmeal cookie.

If you’re craving a little extra sweetness, try drizzling them with a quick glaze made from powdered sugar, lemon, and blackberry juice. It’s the ultimate breakfast twist that’s as tasty as it is convenient!

20.Blackberry and Blueberry Galette Recipe

A galette is like a laid-back, rustic pie.

Instead of fussing with a pie dish, piling on tons of fruit, and crafting a fancy lattice crust, you just need one simple layer of pastry and about 15 minutes of your time.

It’s perfect for when you’re short on patience–or just don’t feel like dealing with pastry in the heat. That’s why galettes are my summer go-to.

Just roll out the dough, pile fresh fruit in the center, fold the edges, brush with egg wash, and bake. It’s easy, quick, and totally delicious.

21.Peach Blackberry Tart

Here’s another take on the galette recipe that I just can’t get enough of! This time, peaches take center stage, bringing a burst of brightness and sweetness to the table.

If you’re using canned, sliced peaches, make sure to drain and pat them dry before adding them to the pastry.

Keep in mind they’ll likely be much softer after baking compared to fresh ones, but they’ll still add that delicious peachy flavor to your galette.

22.Blackberry Chocolate Fig Bars

At first glance, blackberries, chocolate, and figs might seem like an odd mix, but trust us, it’s a game-changer.

The tartness of the blackberries perfectly complements the richness of the chocolate, creating a delightful flavor balance. Then, the figs step in, adding a chewy texture and a caramel-like sweetness that ties everything together.

This unexpected trio is a match made in heaven!

23.Blackberry Frozen Yogurt

Looking for a lighter way to enjoy dessert? Homemade frozen yogurt is a fantastic alternative to ice cream, and making it yourself ensures it’s free from artificial sugars and preservatives.

This recipe keeps things simple with just two main ingredients: fresh blackberries and creamy Greek yogurt. Depending on how sweet your blackberries are, you might not even need to add honey.

Taste it first, and if it needs a touch more sweetness, add the honey gradually until it’s just right.

24.Layered Blackberry Fool

Who says fancy desserts have to be complicated? This clever recipe pulls off a fancy look with just two main ingredients: mashed fruit and whipped cream.

The magic happens when you mix half the whipped cream with half the mashed fruit, then layer them from darkest to lightest for that eye-catching effect.

Top it off with some extra blackberries, a sprinkle of lime zest, and a few dark chocolate shavings for a finishing touch. It’s simple, stunning, and ready to impress your guests with minimal effort!

25.Blackberry Pistachio Crumble Bars

Pistachios bring a unique charm to this recipe with their nutty flavor, subtle taste, and vibrant green color that adds a pop of visual appeal.

While pecans, macadamia nuts, or cashews could work too, there’s something extra special about those green pistachios.

For an extra flourish, I used a bit more than the recipe called for, chopping them roughly and sprinkling them generously over the crumble topping to make them the star of the show.
