Classic Blueberry Cobbler

Prep time: 15 minutes | Bake time: 40-45 minutes | Yield: 6-8 servings

Ingredients

For the Blueberry Filling:

  • 6 cups fresh blueberries (washed and picked over)

  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (helps make that thick, jammy filling seen in the bottom left picture)

For the Cobbler Topping (Batter):

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup granulated sugar

  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted (this looks like the yellow liquid being poured in the first photo)

  • ½ cup whole milk

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • For topping: 2 tablespoons coarse sugar or turbinado sugar (for sprinkling, as seen in the top right photo)

Instructions

1. Prep the Oven and Pan Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or a large casserole dish.

2. Prepare the Filling In a large bowl, toss the fresh blueberries with 1/3 cup sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch until the berries are evenly coated. Pour the blueberry mixture into the bottom of your prepared baking dish in an even layer.

3. Make the Batter (Image 1) In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, ½ cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a small measuring cup, combine the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined (do not overmix; a few lumps are fine).

4. Assemble and Sprinkle (Image 2) Drop spoonfuls of the batter evenly over the blueberry filling. Use a spatula to gently spread it out (it’s okay if some blueberries peek through; the batter will spread as it bakes). Sprinkle the 2 tablespoons of coarse sugar evenly over the top of the batter to give it a sweet, crunchy crust.

5. Bake (Image 3) Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and cooked through, and the blueberry filling is thick and bubbling around the edges.

6. Serve (Image 4) Let the cobbler cool for about 10-15 minutes so the filling can set slightly. Scoop into bowls and
