Ingredients
For the filling
- 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries Wash fresh blueberries and remove any stems.
- 1 cup sugar (divided into 1/2 cup for the fruit and 1/2 cup for the batter)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
For the batter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour For a gluten-free option, substitute with gluten-free flour.
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup milk For dairy-free, use coconut milk or almond milk.
- 0.25 cup butter, melted For dairy-free, use coconut oil or vegan butter.
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preparation
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients. If using fresh blueberries, wash them thoroughly and remove any stems. If using frozen berries, no need to thaw them—just measure and set aside.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Combine Filling
- In a mixing bowl, combine the blueberries, 1/2 cup of sugar, and lemon juice. Mix gently to coat the berries, then transfer this mixture into a greased baking dish.
Prepare Batter
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar.
- Pour the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract into the dry mixture. Stir until everything is well combined and the batter is smooth.
Assemble and Bake
- Pour the batter over the blueberry mixture in the baking dish, ensuring it covers as much of the blueberries as possible.
- Place the dish in your preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the topping turns golden brown.
Serve
- Remove the Blueberry Cobbler from the oven and let it cool slightly for about 10-15 minutes before serving.
- Scoop out generous portions of Blueberry Cobbler into bowls and serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
Mixing the batter just until combined helps prevent toughness. Consider adding a teaspoon of cinnamon to the batter for extra flavor.
