Blueberry Cobbler Recipe
Cobbler is all about the fruit-to-dough ratio. You need a light, doughy top but it should never overshadow the star of the dish: fresh, delicious, baked, slightly sugared fruit. If you're worried about an expensive item like blueberries, err on the side of a smaller cobbler like this one.Click here to see A Sweet Tooth's Dream: 8 Fantastic Dessert Recipes.

Ingredients
- 2 blueberries
- 2 fresh lemon juice
- 3 cornstarch
- 1/2 granulated sugar
- 1/8 mint, chopped (optional)
- 1/4 cold unsalted butter, plus more for greasing
- 1/2 all-purpose flour
- 1 baking powder
- 2 cinnamon
- 1/2 salt
- 1 egg, beaten
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Combine the first 3 ingredients plus ¼ cup of the sugar in a bowl together with the mint (if using), and toss lightly until all ingredients are mixed. Grease an 8-by-12-inch pan with butter and pour in the mixture.
- In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and remaining sugar together. Add the butter in small chunks, without melting, and mix together with a fork or a handheld mixer on low speed. Mix in the egg, taking care not to overmix.
- Add the dough to the top of the cobbler filling in spoonfuls. The dough does not need to be spread evenly since it will flatten as it bakes.
- Place in the oven for 30-40 minutes until the top is browned. Remove from the oven, and serve.
