Equipment

  • 9-inch baking dish
  • Mixing bowls

Ingredients

Blueberry Filling

  • 4 cups blueberries fresh or frozen
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice freshly squeezed

Cobbler Topping

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter cold, cut into small pieces
  • 1/3 cup milk

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch baking dish.
  • Make the Blueberry Filling: In a mixing bowl, toss blueberries with sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice until evenly coated. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
    4 cups blueberries, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 tbsp cornstarch, 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
    1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, 1 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp salt
  • Cut in the Butter: Add cold butter pieces to the flour mixture. Use a pastry blender or your fingertips to work the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
    4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • Add Milk: Stir in the milk just until the dough comes together. Do not overmix.
    1/3 cup milk
  • Top the Berries: Drop spoonfuls of the dough over the berry mixture. It’s okay if some berries peek through.
  • Bake: Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the berry filling is bubbling around the edges.
  • Cool and Serve: Let the cobbler rest for 10 minutes. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

  • Storage: Cover leftovers and store at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • Reheating: Warm slices in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes to refresh the topping.
  • Variations: Swap blueberries with peaches, blackberries, or a mixed berry medley.
  • Tip: To avoid overly sweet cobbler, taste your berries first—if they're very sweet, reduce the added sugar slightly.
