Easy Blueberry Cobbler
Are you looking for an easy dessert recipe? Something so easy but it’s actually impressive too? And do you happen to have some fresh blueberries on hand? This easy Blueberry Cobbler recipe is for you.
We had some neighbors coming over for a barbecue the other day, and I really needed to whip up a dessert quickly. Blueberry cobbler was the right choice. Just berries tossed with sugar and juice… laid into a pie plate… a simple, sweet batter spooned on top, and a quick 35 minutes in the oven. Mission Easy Dessert done!
I love it when a cobbler comes out of the oven all piping hot– the fresh blueberries have morphed into being soft, sweet and syrupy. You’ll want a STRAW to suck up all of that fabulous, sugary blueberry juice.
Ice cream is the perfect topper for warm cobbler. The only bad thing about this recipe is that it will be gone almost immediately upon serving, and you will wish you had more!
The teenagers at our barbecue dished up more ice cream and snaked the remaining bits of blueberry syrup from the pan. This is the perfect summer dessert recipe- especially if you have access to big, juicy, wonderful blueberries!
How is cobbler different than a crisp or crumble?
A cobbler is fresh fruit in a pan that is typically topped with a sweet batter before baking. The topping on a fruit crisp (or crumble) usually consists of some sort of sweetened oat mixture. Both are delicious served warm with ice cream or whipped cream!

Blueberry Cobbler
Ingredients
BERRY MIXTURE:
- 4 cups fresh blueberries
- 3 tablespoons granulated white sugar
- 1/3 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
COBBLER:
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup all purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- pinch of salt
FOR SERVING:
- vanilla ice cream, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch pie plate with nonstick spray (not a deep dish).
PREPARE THE BERRIES:
- In a medium bowl, toss together the berries, sugar and juice. Put the berry mixture into the prepared dish.
PREPARE THE COBBLER:
- In a separate medium bowl, use an electric mixer to combine the butter and sugar; beat until light and fluffy. Mix in the egg and vanilla. Add flour, baking powder and salt, beating just until combined. Drop the batter by the spoonful on top of the berry mixture- covering as much of the top as possible with the batter.
- Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve in dishes with a scoop of ice cream on top (if desired).

This blueberry cobbler was AMAZING!! Seriously so delicious and simple. Thanks for sharing!
Such a classic summer dessert! PERFECT with a scoop of vanilla ice scream!
The kids couldn’t wait to eat up their dinner to get to this cobbler. It smelled so amazing and topped with vanila ice cream, it was irresistible! So good!
The perfect recipe for summer fruit!
This was very easy to make and very delicious! Thank you! Next time I would probably use a deep dish to avoid
run over in the oven. Although I did clean it up right away with a baking soda paste and vinegar while oven was still warm
Made this today after finding boxes of blueberries on a buy one, get one deal at the grocery store. Three of us finished the entire pan! Seriously . . . so good.
I made this tonight, & it was delicious, will make again. Thanks
Wanted to make this in a 9×13 pan…serving 11. Would you just double the recipe? I made this past weekend with mixed berries (added blackberry and raspberry to blueberries). SO good!
I think doubling and putting in a 9×13 would probably work. Glad you are enjoying the recipe!
Used frozen blueberries, used lemon juice instead of orange – 5 cups of berries instead of 4 – fabulous recipe ! All gone – served 6 of us with cool whip.
Hi,
I tried this last night with Saskatoon Berries (Juneberry?) as I was out of Blueberries. It turned out great. Thank you for the delicious recipe, I saw it on your Facebook post.
