Preparation
- Step 1
Heat the oven to 375 degrees. To prepare the berries, place in a bowl and toss with the sugar and flour. Set aside.
- Step 2
To make the dough, mix the flour, salt, sugar and baking powder in a bowl. Cut in the butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the cream and mix lightly, just until the dry ingredients are moistened.
- Step 3
Put the blueberries in a 1½-quart gratin or baking dish. Make patties out of the dough, 2 to 2½ inches in diameter and ½-inch thick. Arrange them over the top of the berries. Bake until the topping is brown and the juices bubble thickly around it, about 35 to 40 minutes.
- Step 4
Let cool slightly. Serve warm, with cream to pour on top, if desired.

4 1/2 cups = 27 oz = 765 grams fresh blueberries
Delicious and very easy! I added some lemon zest and lemon juice to the berry/sugar/flour mixture to bring out the taste of the blueberries and it was amazing!
About as easy as dessert gets, added a dash of cinnamon and replaced the cream with buttermilk because buttermilk makes everything better. Served it to my foodie pals with local vanilla ice cream, everyone loved it. I have about a dozen cobbler recipes, this one is now number one.
I made this at my cabin without a measuring cup or spoons and it turned out fantastic. I used buttermilk, baking soda, and lemon zest. So easy and a big hit.
Delicious as written. No subs, no changes to technique. Loved it. Biscuits were so tender, delicate, and fluffy all at the same time from cutting in the butter and the cream. Didn’t have to roll it out. Thank you so much. Perfect ending to a summer grilled dinner.
I halved the recipe for a quick 2 person dessert. I used frozen blackberries and light cream in the dough. Came out deliciously easy.
