I've been in a baking mood lately, but since I no longer live in Georgia, I'm not privy to a giant bag of"Aunt" Pam's blueberries grown in her backyard. Y'all lemme tell you, those are the best.
Instead, I had to pay ridiculously high prices at the commissary for some blueberries - you don't even want to know. But, I was determined I was going to make some blueberry cobbler for the hubs before he, and the summer, leave.
And, I guess since I like y'all so much, I'll share this easy as pie, err cobbler, recipe. Given to me by none other than, my Momma.
Side note: If I plant a blueberry bush now, would the plant mature enough for us to even enjoy any blueberries before I move off and leave their berry goodness for the next tenant? Just curious. I don't think my landlord would mind.
Blueberry Cobbler
1 stick butter (we make Paula Deen proud in this household)
1 cup self rising flour*
1 cup sugar
1 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 quart (4 cups) blueberries
Preheat your oven to 350 and in a 8x8 dish cut up the butter into pieces and place the dish in the oven to melt the butter while it's preheating. Meanwhile rinse your berries and make sure they are free of sticks. Mix together the flour, sugar, milk, and vanilla. Whisk until mixed well. Pour the mixture into your buttered baking dish. Then sprinkle with the blueberries.
It should look something like this...
Bake at 350 for 45 minutes.
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
Seriously this is a heavenly recipe and so easy.
Ohh, yes.
*If you only have all purpose flour (like me) no worries - just add in a pinch of salt and 1 1/2 tsp of baking powder to your flour.
Yum!!! I use almost the exact same recipe for peach cobbler. So easy, but so soooo good. :)
ReplyDeletegirl you are making us southerns proud do you care if I share this link on my friday's favorites?
ReplyDeleteLindsay - Do you precook your peaches first? My husband is a peach guy, he would love that!
ReplyDeleteCarrie - I'd be honored! :)
Yum Yum Yum Yum!
ReplyDeleteMmm that looks delish! I’m not sure how long it takes a blueberry plant to fruit, but do know they make patio container blueberry bushes that you could possibly take with you depending on your move.
