Ingredients
Filling Ingredients
- 6 cups blueberries fresh *see notes for frozen berries
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest optional, (about 1 lemon's worth)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
Cobbler Topping Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup 1 stick unsalted butter room temperature, and cut into cubes
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoons coarse sugar or turbinado sugar for sprinkling optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Lightly spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Clean berries and add them to a large bowl.
- Add lemon juice and zest, and stir to combine.
- Whisk together 1/4 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle over berries and toss to coat. (If you are using frozen berries, add an extra tablespoon of flour).
- Put the blueberry mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- Whisk together flour, 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
- Cut butter into pieces and blend into flour mixture until small crumbles form. Use a pastry cutter or forks to cut the butter in.
- Gradually add milk and stir after each addition until well mixed.
- Spoon the batter onto blueberries and spread slightly. The mixture will be thick but will spread while baking. If desired, sprinkle a small amount of coarse sugar on top to make the crust sparkle.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown.
- Let the cobbler cool slightly, then serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
Notes
- For frozen berries, increase the flour in the filling to 2 tablespoons total. The cobbler will be runnier if made with frozen fruit.
- Some blueberries are sweeter than others. I recommend taste testing a few, and if they are very tart, then add a little more sugar to the filling. Using up to 1/2 a cup of total sugar in the filling will work fine.
- It is easier to cut the butter into small squares as soon as you get it out of the refrigerator instead of after it has softened.
- This recipe has just a touch of cinnamon flavor. You can double the amount of cinnamon and add 1/8 teaspoon of ground nutmeg if you prefer.
