This Cast-Iron Lemon Blueberry Cobbler is sweet and tart and bursting with berry flavor!

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup salted butter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (for Gluten-Free version, use gluten-free flour)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • ½ cups brown sugar, plus 2 tablespoons
  • ½ cup white sugar
  • zest from one lemon
  • 6 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice (typically 1 ½ lemons)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries, washed and stems removed (about 9 ounces), plus 1 cup (about 4.5 ounces)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
  3. Stir in the buttermilk, 1 cup sugar (brown + white), 4 tablespoons of the lemon juice, zest and vanilla.
  4. Mix together the remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar, remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and the blueberries in small bowl or medium bowl as needed.
  5. Place the butter in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet (or a 9x9 square or round baking dish) and transfer to the preheated oven to melt, and heat the pan for 5 minutes. (Be careful to not leave it in longer or you could burn the butter.)
  6. Remove the hot skillet with the melted butter from the oven and pour in the batter. Top with the sugared blueberries – sprinkling them all over the pan evenly. Turn the oven down to 375 degrees and bake for 20 minutes, then add another cup of berries on top of the cobbler, strategically placing them to make it pretty. Then bake 10-15 more minutes. (If you want it a little more golden on top, turn on the broiler for 30-seconds - 1 minute.)
  7. Transfer to a baking rack to cool slightly.
  8. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
