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).

I made this last night and it was so easy and fast to put togather we both loved it with cool whip..Super
Didnt need orange juice.. needs double the sugar. Very bland. Probably increase amount of dough by 1/3
Can you make this with frozen blueberry
sure
I made this tonight and I wasn’t sure how good it was going to be because it was so EASY!! My picky friend and her husband came and they practically licked their bowls. I will make definitely make it again!! I also bought the worst blueberries I’ve ever tasted and it was still fabulous!!
very nice, not too sweet, not too much crust so hopefully less calories! easy to make .thanks
This is a delicious blueberry cobbler reciepe i made it for dessert and served it with vanilla ice cream the cobbler was wonderful.Thank You very much
My cobbler crust always turns out like muffin texture, until now! It was perfect and scrumptious!
This was amazing!! I doubled the cobbler part because that’s my favorite part and it was sooo good! Didn’t have enough blueberries so I did some raspberries to substitute what I didn’t have.
I’ve just made this for the 2nd time, it’s a winner for sure. I love how the “crust” soaks down into the fruit and makes it a nice firm texture. I’m getting great fresh blueberries right now pretty cheap and this was the perfect recipe for an easy cobbler.
Everyone at my house was impressed with this cobbler!
