Skillet Blueberry Cobbler Recipes

SKILLET BLUEBERRY COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Melt the butter in a 10 or 12-inch cast-iron skillet.
• Add blueberries (if using frozen, let fruit thaw at room temperature first) and 2 tablespoons of the sugar.
• Stir gently and cook just until the berries begin to soften. If mixture seems at all dry, add the water.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together flour, remaining 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
• Add the milk and stir to make a thick batter.
• Spoon batter onto the fruit.
• Drag a spoon or spatula through batter to make streaks of white and blue. DON'T mix thoroughly.
• Bake until a tester inserted in the biscuit top comes out clean and the fruit is bubbling around the edges, about 20 minutes.
• Serve with whipped cream or ice cream, if desired.
• Note: You can make this with fresh or frozen peaches or other berries as well.
• If you don't have a cast-iron skillet, you can use an ovenproof dish. You can heat the butter and fruit in a skillet and then scrape them into a baking dish to continue.
• The cobbler is best served warm directly from the pan. If you have leftovers or plan to keep for a while, transfer to a nonreactive container.

BLUEBERRY-CARAMEL SKILLET COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Toss the berries with 1 teaspoon vanilla and 3 tablespoons flour; set aside. Combine the brown sugar and 3 tablespoons water in a medium ovenproof skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until thick and caramelized, about 7 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in the lemon juice then the berry mixture and set aside.
• Whisk the remaining 1 cup flour, the granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter and work it into the flour mixture with your fingers until evenly incorporated and the mixture resembles fine meal. Whisk the egg yolks with the buttermilk and the remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla in a small bowl, then gradually whisk into the flour mixture until the batter is smooth. Spread the batter evenly in the skillet so the berries are almost covered.
• Bake until the top is golden, about 35 minutes. Let stand at least 10 minutes before serving.

VERY BEST BLUEBERRY COBBLER!

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.
