Moist Blueberry Cobbler With Frozen Berries (Printer-friendly)
Luscious frozen blueberries nestled beneath a golden, moist biscuit topping. Ready in under an hour.
# What You'll Need:
→ Berry Filling
01 - 5 cups frozen blueberries
02 - 3/4 cup granulated sugar
03 - 2 tablespoons cornstarch
04 - 1 tablespoon lemon juice
05 - 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
06 - Pinch of 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
13 - 2/3 cup whole milk
14 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
# How to Prepare:
01 - Preheat your oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
02 - In a large bowl, toss the frozen blueberries with granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until evenly coated. Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
03 - In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
04 - Pour the melted butter, whole milk, and vanilla extract into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; the batter will be thick and slightly lumpy. Avoid overmixing to prevent a tough texture.
05 - Drop spoonfuls of the batter evenly over the blueberry mixture, covering most of the surface but leaving some gaps for steam to escape and fruit juices to bubble through during baking.
06 - Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until the topping is golden brown and cooked through, and the berry filling is bubbling vigorously around the edges.
07 - Allow the cobbler to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving to let the filling set slightly. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
# Expert Advice:

- Frozen blueberries actually work better than fresh since they release more juice while baking
- It comes together in under 15 minutes but tastes like you spent all afternoon on it
02 -
- The topping might look a bit uneven going into the oven, but it will spread and puff beautifully as it bakes
- Serve this warm rather than hot so you can actually taste the flavors instead of just burning your tongue
03 -
- Set your butter out to melt while you prep the berries so it has time to cool slightly before mixing
- Leftovers keep surprisingly well in the fridge and the topping stays moist for days
