Ingredients

- Blueberries: Fresh or thawed frozen blueberries work well. Extra berries? Use them in Sheet Pan Pancakes, a Green Smoothie, or a mini Icebox Cake.
- Sugar: Sweetens the filling and helps create a syrupy sauce as the cobbler bakes.
- Lemon juice: Adds a bright, citrusy balance to the blueberries. Fresh or bottled both work.
- Flour: Forms the base of the topping. A gluten-free 1:1 flour substitute can be used if needed.
- Baking powder: Helps the topping rise. Check freshness for the best results.
- Salt: Enhances sweetness and balances flavors.
- Milk: Adds moisture to the topping.
Pro Tip: How to Freeze Blueberries
Want to keep blueberries on hand year-round? Spread fresh blueberries in a single layer on a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer them to a freezer bag. They’ll keep for up to six months—great for making cobbler anytime!

I tried this with cherries and used monkfruit instead of sugar and it was slay. Thanks for the recipe I’ll be eating this every night until I can’t take it anymore.
This was so yummy! I would’ve added less blueberries. I weighed 3oz and it was basically blueberries with a hint of cobbler 😂😂 i will be making it again with less!
Thanks so much for the air fryer info, it’s so hot here today I didn’t want to use the oven. I preheated the air fryer for a few minutes, then baked the cobbler for 15 minutes at 300. It was so good!! I can’t wait to try it with peaches.
Where is the air-fryer info?
In earlier comments someone had said they made this in their air fryer, 300 degrees for 15 minutes, so I tried it and it came out very well.
Great recipe and easy too. I had just enough blueberries when your recipe showed up so I thought why not. It took 6 minutes to put together popped it in the oven and let it bake while I had my omelet for supper. Are you a self-rising flour so I don’t need to mess with baking powder and salt. The flavor was great. I think the hardest part of the whole recipe is cleaning the Ramekin afterwards.
When I made it the first time I was hooked. I used strawberries and blueberries that needed to be cooked or trashed that day. It was sooo good and easy. I have now made it many times with many
varieties of fresh or frozen mixed berries.
I made this cobbler tonight, followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfect. My husband LOVED it.
Delicious and easy to make. Came out spectacular with my fresh blueberries from my yard.
It was delicious.
