Moist Blueberry Cobbler With Frozen Berries (Printer-friendly)

A luscious dessert featuring juicy frozen blueberries beneath a golden, moist biscuit topping. Perfect served warm with vanilla ice cream.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Berry Filling

01 - 5 cups frozen blueberries, unthawed
02 - 3/4 cup granulated sugar
03 - 2 tablespoons cornstarch
04 - 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
05 - 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
06 - 1/8 teaspoon salt

→ Cobbler Topping

07 - 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
08 - 1/2 cup granulated sugar
09 - 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
10 - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
11 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
12 - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
13 - 2/3 cup whole milk
14 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
02 - In a large bowl, combine frozen blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, cinnamon, and salt. Toss until berries are evenly coated. Spread mixture in the prepared baking dish.
03 - In a separate medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well blended.
04 - Pour melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula just until combined. The batter will be thick and slightly lumpy—avoid overmixing.
05 - Drop spoonfuls of the batter evenly over the blueberry filling. Leave small gaps between portions to allow fruit juices to bubble through during baking.
06 - Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until the topping is golden brown and set, and the berry filling is bubbling vigorously around the edges. If the top browns too quickly, tent loosely with foil.
07 - Let the cobbler rest for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or freshly whipped cream.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It comes together in under 15 minutes of active work
  • Frozen blueberries mean you can make this year round without spending a fortune
  • The topping stays incredibly moist, not dry or biscuit like at all
02 -
  • Do not thaw the blueberries first, they need to go into the oven frozen
  • The batter will seem thick and slightly lumpy, do not keep mixing to smooth it out
  • Letting it cool for 15 minutes is not optional, the filling needs that time to thicken
03 -
  • Sprinkle coarse sugar over the topping before baking for extra crunch and sparkle
  • Use plant based milk and vegan butter for an equally delicious dairy free version
