Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh blueberries
- 1 cup granulated sugar, divided
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
How to Make Blueberry Cobbler
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh blueberries with 1/2 cup of sugar. Toss gently to coat and set aside to allow the juices to develop.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter, milk, remaining 1/2 cup of sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter will be slightly lumpy; that’s okay!
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Spoon the blueberry mixture over the batter, ensuring even distribution.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the batter comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
Tips for the Best Results
- Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor. If using frozen, do not thaw them before adding.
- For a touch of spice, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon to the batter.
- Allow the cobbler to cool slightly before serving to let the juices thicken up a bit.
Easy Variations
- Try mixing in other fruits like raspberries or peaches for a mixed-fruit cobbler.
- Add a sprinkle of lemon zest to the blueberry mixture for a zesty twist.
- Swap half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a heartier version.
What to Serve With It
- A scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a classic pairing.
- A dollop of Greek yogurt for a tangy contrast.
- Fresh mint leaves for a refreshing garnish.
