Blueberry Cobbler
Cobblers are a quick and easy dessert consisting of a layer of fruit filling baked under a cakey topping.
They are super easy to throw together when company drops in unexpectedly, or whenever you just want something good to eat. Canned fruit pie fillings like apple, cherry, peach or blueberry can always be used, but it’s even better with fresh fruit when in season. The big favorite in my family is fresh blueberry cobbler topped with Cottage Pudding which is cake-like but slightly coarser and easier to make because you mix it by hand in a bowl. No mixer needed. Original recipe was from Fanny Farmer Cookbook and I have been making it for years.

Blueberry Cobbler
Ingredients
Cottage Pudding
- 1-1/2 cup flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 egg beaten
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1/2 tsp salt
Blueberry Pie Filling
- 4 cups blueberries fresh or frozen
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup flour (scant)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice (optional)
Instructions
- Mix pie filling ingredients and place into greased pan. Use a 8x8” or 9x9” pan which is fairly deep ( at least 2-1/2”)
Cottage pudding
- Mix dry ingredients
- Mix wet ingredients together then gently stir into flour mixture
- Pour over the fruit filling. I usually pour it around the edges, leaving it to slowly fill in the center as it bakes because the center takes longer to cook otherwise
- Bake at 400 F until brown and crusty
