Homemade blueberry cobbler is a family favorite dessert. Made from scratch using fresh blueberries, it’s a super easy recipe you can make in a pinch!
Fruit cobbler is definitely one of my favorite desserts to make, besides chocolate chip cookies, when I'm in a pinch and need something quick.
I make peach cobbler every year, and this year after picking blueberries, I decided to switch up our recipe to make a scrumptious blueberry cobbler.
This blueberry cobbler recipe is so easy; and it uses really simple ingredients. Once it's mixed up, just let your oven do the rest.
Being that it's made with blueberries, the only prep you have to do to the berries is wash them and dry them. No stemming, slicing, or anything else.
An easy, 2-ingredient version of this recipe makes a delicious sugar cookie cobbler. And if you'd like a creamy pie, this blueberry cream pie recipe is a family favorite too.
Gather your ingredients for blueberry cobbler:
- Unbleached all-purpose flour
- Pure cane sugar
- Salt
- Unsalted butter
- Whole milk
- Blueberries
- Corn starch
- Salted butter
- Cinnamon
Tips for how to make this recipe for blueberry cobbler:
Preheat the oven to 425°. Then bring it down to 375°.
To mix the crust, combine the dry ingredients, including the flour, sugar, and salt; then set the mixture aside.
Combine the softened unsalted butter and whole milk in a smaller bowl or glass measuring cup. Then add the liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring with a fork.
Set aside about 1/4 of the dough for your cobbler topping. Press the rest of the dough into an oval baking dish or large cast iron skillet; press the dough up the sides until the crust covers the dish or skillet.
Wash and pat dry the blueberries. Place them in a medium to large sized mixing bowl; I love my handled bowl for this.
Add in the sugar, salt, corn starch, and cinnamon. Mix well.
Pour the blueberry mixture into the crust, and top with slices of salted butter. Finally, crumble your saved crust topping over the blueberry mixture.
Bake for 40 minutes to 1 hour, until the crust turns a golden brown.
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and enjoy! It's so yummy!
