Mimi’s Maine Blueberry Cobbler

Maine is already known for the famously grown blueberries, but what could make them better? Mimi’s Maine Blueberry Cobbler could enhance the amazing blueberry experience. The recipe can be found HERE, or can be viewed below! My family is one that loves their deserts after dinner, so this will have to become something that I try to make as soon as the blueberry picking season comes along!

Ingredients: 

Blueberry Mixture:

• 4 cups of blueberries
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

Cobbler:

• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 4 1/2 tablespoons cold butter
• 3/4 cup buttermilk, plus 1 tablespoon

Directions:

Blueberries:

In a large bowl combine all the ingredients, then place in a sprayed baking dish and bake for 10 minutes at 375 degrees while you prepare the Cobbler.

Cobbler:

In a bowl combine the first 5 ingredients and mix the combination well. Cut and put in the cold butter, mix until it looks like crumbs. Next, stir in the buttermilk until the mixture becomes moistened. Then, take the cobbler mixture by tablespoons and place them onto the blueberry mixture. After that, sprinkle sugar on the top and place in the oven for 25- 30 minutes at 375 degrees. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Enjoy!
