Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the blackberries, 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Mix gently and set aside to macerate while preparing the batter.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, blend the skim milk, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
Pour the macerated blackberries into a 9x9-inch baking dish, spreading them evenly across the bottom.
Gently spoon the batter over the blackberries, allowing some of the berries to peek through the top of the batter.
Sprinkle the cinnamon over the surface of the batter for an extra touch of flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the topping comes out clean.
Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy it warm or at room temperature.
