to taste
1. Prepare Blueberry Mixture
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, gently toss together 4.5 cups of fresh blueberries with 0.33 cup of sugar and 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients
In another bowl, combine 1.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 0.5 teaspoon of kosher salt, 1.5 tablespoons of sugar, and 2.25 teaspoons of baking powder. Stir until well mixed.
3. Add Butter
Add 6 tablespoons of cold, unsalted butter cut into 1/2-inch pieces to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse meal.
4. Mix Cream
Pour in 0.75 cup of heavy cream and mix lightly until the dry ingredients are just moistened. Do not overmix.
5. Assemble Cobbler
Spread the prepared blueberries evenly in a 1.5-quart baking dish. Form the dough into small patties about 2 to 2.5 inches in diameter and 0.5 inches thick. Arrange the dough patties on top of the blueberries.
6. Bake Cobbler
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the topping is browned and the blueberry juices are bubbling thickly around the edges.
7. Serve
Let the cobbler cool slightly before serving. If desired, drizzle with additional heavy cream.
Use peaches with nutmeg and an optional splash of bourbon for a different take on the classic cobbler.
Combine various berries for a vibrant filling, adjusting sugar to the berries' sweetness.
Create a cobbler with sliced apples and cinnamon, adding allspice or nutmeg for extra warmth.
Incorporate the zest of a lemon or an orange into the sugar mixture used with the blueberries to brighten the flavor with a zesty note.
Mix in other berries or peaches with blueberries and adjust the sugar accordingly for varied tartness and sweetness.
