Blueberry Cobbler Recipe
Blueberry Cobbler features fresh or frozen blueberries nestled under a lightly sweetened, fluffy batter. The butter melts into the baking dish creating a rich base, while the sweetened berries bubble beneath a golden baked batter that offers a tender crumb. The blend of berries and batter creates a warm, comforting dessert with sweet fruit flavor and soft, cake-like topping.
Ingredients
- 1/2 /2 cup butter
- 2 pints blueberries fresh or frozen (about 4 cups)
- 1/2 /2 cup sugar
Blueberry Cobbler Batter
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 /4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup milk or half-and-half
Optional Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 /2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Prep. Preheat the oven to 350º F. Add sliced butter to the baking dish and place in the oven while it preheats to allow the butter to melt. Remove the baking dish once the butter has melted.
- Prep the blueberries. Add blueberries and 1/2 cup sugar to a bowl and toss to combine.
- Make the cobbler batter. Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Pour in the milk and whisk until smooth and well combined.
- Add blueberries. Pour the sugared blueberries over the melted butter, evenly distributing over the melted butter. Do not stir.
- Add the cobbler batter. Pour the cobbler batter evenly over the blueberries, do not stir.
- Bake. Bake until lightly golden brown on top, about 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to rest about 3 minutes.
- Serve. Serve warm.
Notes
- Make ahead by baking and storing covered in the refrigerator; reheat before serving.
- Freeze after baking in a freezer-safe dish wrapped tightly; thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
- Reheat gently in the oven covered with foil or in intervals in the microwave until warmed through.
- Gluten-free versions can be made by substituting gluten-free flours and omitting baking powder and salt if using self-rising flour.
- Dairy-free substitutions include plant-based milks and butters.
- Lower sugar options can use sugar-free substitutes appropriate for baking.
