Ingredients
Scale
Batter Ingredients
- 1 cup self-rising flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup milk (2% or higher)
- ½ cup (1 stick) salted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fruit Topping
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- ¼ cup sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 9×9-inch square baking dish with nonstick cooking spray to prevent the cobbler from sticking, and set it aside.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the self-rising flour and granulated sugar, stirring them together until evenly mixed.
- Add wet ingredients: Pour in the milk, melted salted butter, and vanilla extract into the dry mixture. Stir thoroughly until the batter is smooth and fully combined.
- Prepare the batter in the dish: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula or spoon to ensure uniform cooking.
- Add blueberries: Evenly distribute the fresh blueberries on top of the batter, making sure they cover the surface evenly for balanced flavor in each serving.
- Sprinkle sugar: Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup of sugar evenly over the blueberries to add a sweet, crunchy topping as it bakes.
- Bake: Place the baking dish into the preheated oven and bake the cobbler for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and serve: Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. This allows it to set and makes it easier to portion.
Notes
- Use fresh or frozen blueberries; if using frozen, do not thaw before adding to batter.
- Can be served warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
- Self-rising flour can be substituted with all-purpose flour plus 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder and ¼ teaspoon salt.
