Ingredients

For the blueberry bottom layer

  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1 ½ tbsp corn starch
  • 6 cups blueberries
  • 4 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp lemon zest finely grated

For the cinnamon cobbler biscuits

  • 1 ½ cups flour
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ cup + 2 tbsp very cold butter cut in cubes
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Mix together the sugar, cornstarch, blueberries, lemon juice and zest until well combined.
  2. Pour into the bottom of an ungreased 9x9 inch glass baking dish.
  3. NOTE: This recipe uses fresh blueberries. If using frozen blueberries, allow them to thaw completely and come to room temperature before using them in this recipe.

For the cinnamon cobbler biscuits

  1. Sift together the flour, sugar baking powder and cinnamon.
  2. Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter or in a food processor until it resembles a coarse meal.
  3. Beat together the egg, milk and vanilla extract.
  4. Add to dry ingredients and mix together just until dough forms. Pat the dough to a one inch thickness and cut out 9 biscuits with a biscuit cutter. Egg wash the tops of the biscuits and sprinkle the tops with a little sugar. Place the biscuits on top of the blueberry mixture.
  5. Bake in a 350 degree F oven for approximately 30 - 40 minutes or until the blueberries are bubbling at the center of the pan and the tops of the biscuits are golden brown.
  6. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
