Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh blueberries
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.5 cups whole milk
- 1 tablespoon coarse sugar (optional, for sprinkling)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a 10-inch cast-iron skillet, combine the blueberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Mix well to evenly coat the blueberries, and set aside while you prepare the topping.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually stir in the milk until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Drop spoonfuls of the dough evenly over the blueberry mixture in the skillet, leaving some gaps for the blueberries to bubble through.
Optional: Sprinkle the dough with coarse sugar for added texture and sweetness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the blueberries are thick and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let the cobbler cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, if desired.
