Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Make the filling: In a large bowl, whisk together ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, a pinch ground cinnamon, and a pinch salt. Add 30 ounces (6 cups) blueberries and gently toss until the berries are evenly coated. Add 1 tablespoon lemon juice and stir to combine. Transfer the berry mixture to an 8-inch square baking dish (or a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate or 10-inch cast-iron skillet).
  • Make the topping (dry): In a second large bowl, whisk together 1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour, ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar, 1½ teaspoons baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  • Make the topping (wet): In a small bowl, whisk together ⅓ cup (79.33 ml) heavy cream, ¼ cup (56.75 g) unsalted butter (melted), and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir gently until just combined and no dry pockets of flour remain.
  • Assemble: Using a spoon or ice-cream scoop, divide the topping into 8 equal mounds and place them on top of the blueberry filling, spacing them so the mounds do not touch. Sprinkle the 2 teaspoons granulated sugar evenly over the dough mounds.
  • Bake: Place the cobbler in the preheated oven and bake 35 to 45 minutes, rotating the pan once halfway through baking, until the filling is bubbling and the topping is golden brown and cooked through.
  • Cool and store: Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool at least 20 minutes before serving. Store covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.
