Recipe

A delightful twist on traditional cobbler, Blueberry Cornbread Cobbler combines sweet blueberries with a savory cornbread topping for a unique dessert or breakfast treat.

This recipe is easy to prepare and perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients:

• 4 cups fresh blueberries
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 cup cornmeal
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large egg

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine blueberries, 1/2 cup sugar, and lemon juice. Toss gently and spread evenly in the prepared baking dish.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
4. In another bowl, mix milk, melted butter, and egg. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
5. Drop spoonfuls of the cornbread batter over the blueberries, spreading it slightly to cover most of the fruit.
6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the blueberries are bubbling.
7. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes:

• Frozen blueberries can be used instead of fresh; no need to thaw.
• Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for added indulgence.

What To Serve With It

While the blueberry cornbread cobbler is plenty satisfying on its own, pairing it with the right sides can turn it into a full, memorable meal.

My go-to serving suggestions include a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a creamy contrast, or a dollop of whipped cream to highlight its sweetness.

For a savory balance, try serving it alongside grilled pork chops or roasted chicken.

When it comes to pairing beverages, I love a hot cup of coffee or a glass of cold milk to complement the flavors.

These simple additions can make your cobbler shine even brighter!
