Treat yourself to this comforting cobbler that celebrates the rich, natural sweetness of blueberries!
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch baking dish and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the fresh blueberries, 0.5 cups of granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Toss until the berries are well-coated. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, 0.25 cups of granulated sugar, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Mix the milk and vanilla extract in a small bowl, then pour into the flour mixture. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the blueberry filling. It’s okay if some gaps remain, as the dough will spread while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the blueberry filling is bubbling.
While the cobbler bakes, prepare the blueberry sauce. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 1 cup of fresh blueberries, 0.25 cups of granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons of water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the berries break down and the mixture thickens, about 8–10 minutes. Remove from heat and strain for a smoother sauce if desired.
Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for 5–10 minutes. Dust the biscuit topping with powdered sugar, if desired.
Serve warm, drizzled with the homemade blueberry sauce. Enjoy!
