Thick Crust Blueberry Cobbler Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 Lightly grease with shortening 13 x 9 inch baking dish. Pour blueberries in then sprinkle with the lemon juice.
• In large mixing bowl add 2 1/4 cup sugar. Add softened butter. Using mixer (preferably a stand mixer but handheld will do) cream butter and sugar until smooth.
• In a different mixing bowl whisk together flour and baking powder until well blended.
• Alternating between the flour mixture and milk starting with flour and ending with flour slowly add to the creamed butter and mix until mixed completely. Pour over berries making sure to spread to the edges of the pan.
• In a small bowl mix together remaining sugar, cornstarch , salt and cinnamon and sprinkle over batter. Pour boiling water over entire pan.
• Place dish on a foil lined baking sheet and place in oven. (I over estimated baking time because it varies every time I make it and different ovens always vary.) Bake for 1 hour then check to see if it's done by using a toothpick in the middle of the pan. Most likely it will not be done. Bake in 15 minute increments checking to see if it's done by using toothpick. Cobbler will be done when the toothpick comes out with no batter on the toothpick. Don't worry too much about the color of the crust. It's mostly the cinnamon making it look dark (see picture). You should be able to tell the difference between cinnamon brown and burnt.
• I serve mine with homemade whipped topping (see picture) and here's how I do that even though I don't list these ingredients in the main ingredient list -- It's better to use a stand mixer because of the time it takes to blend but a hand mixer will work. Place your bowl (if using a hand mixer use a deep mixing bowl) and beaters in the freezer for at least 30 minutes before making whipped cream. You need 2 cups heavy whipping cream (I used Promise Land or Organic Farms) 6 tablespoons sugar and 2 teaspoons of real vanilla extract. Mix on high until stiff peaks form (approx 6-7 minutes). Whipped cream will keep in refrigerator up to 2 days tightly covered. This recipe will make enough whipped cream for all 10 servings with a pretty good dollop of it.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350. Combine 1 cup of blueberries, sugar, and 3 tablespoons of water in a pan. If you are using frozen there is really no need to add water, just cook it slow for the juices to come out naturally. Then the juice will melt the sugar. I used fresh blueberries this time around and had a hard time getting juice to come out.
• 2. Cook on low heat until the sugar melted.
• 3. Make a slurry with the rest of the water and the cornstarch in a separate cup.
• 4. Add the slurry to the blueberry mixture.
• 5. Heat to a gentle boil.
• 6. Add the butter and allspice to the blueberry mixture. Mix well and once the sauce is thickened. Let cool for about 3 minutes.
• 7. Add the remaining blueberries to the mixture and fold them in gently.
• 8. Pour the mixture to your pie dish, cake pan or casserole dish.
• 9. In a new bowl, add the cake mixture and cold butter.
• 10. Cut in the butter.
• 11. Once the butter and cake mix resembles small crumb-like pieces (much like a pie crust), sprinkle on the top of the blueberry filling. The top should be about a 1/4 thick. If any thicker add a dab of butter on top.
• 12. Bake in an oven for 1 hour or until nice and golden brown. You also want to make sure the topping is cake-like, not batter-like. Might be a safe bet to put something under your baking dish to help the occasional boil over.
• 13. Take out and let cool. Best served with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream to help break up the sweetness. Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the berries, lemon juice and 1/2 cup sugar. Bring to a boil; remove from the heat. Set aside. Place butter in an 11x7-in. baking dish; melt butter in a 350° oven. , In a small bowl, combine the remaining sugar with flour, baking powder, salt, milk and egg. Pour over melted butter. Do not stir. Spoon reserved berry mixture over batter. Do not stir., Bake at 350° for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown. Serve at room temperature with whipped cream or whipped topping.

Steps:

• Lightly grease an 8 inch square baking dish. Place the blueberries into the baking dish, and mix with vanilla and lemon juice. Sprinkle with 1 cup of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of flour, then stir in the tablespoon of melted butter. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, stir together 1 3/4 cups of flour, baking powder, and 6 tablespoons sugar. Rub in the 5 tablespoons butter using your fingers, or cut in with a pastry blender until it is in small pieces. Make a well in the center, and quickly stir in the milk. Mix just until moistened. You should have a very thick batter, or very wet dough. You may need to add a splash more milk. Cover, and let batter rest for 10 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spoon the batter over the blueberries, leaving only a few small holes for the berries to peek through. Mix together the cinnamon and 2 teaspoons sugar; sprinkle over the top.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is golden brown. A knife inserted into the topping should come out clean - of course there will be blueberry syrup on the knife. Let cool until just warm before serving. This can store in the refrigerator for 2 days.
