Ingredients for Easy Peach and Blueberry Cobbler

Peaches bring a sweet, juicy flavor that forms the foundation of this cobbler. Fresh peaches work best, but you can use frozen in a pinch. Blueberries add a burst of tartness and color contrast, making each bite interesting. Granulated sugar sweetens the fruit and balances the tartness. All-purpose flour is the base for the batter, creating a soft, tender topping. Unsalted butter, melted, gives richness and helps the batter brown beautifully. Baking powder ensures the batter rises and becomes fluffy. Salt enhances all the flavors, bringing out the sweetness of the fruit. Whole milk adds creaminess to the batter. Lemon juice brightens the fruit flavors, making them pop. Lastly, vanilla extract adds a comforting aroma that ties everything together.

Tips & Tricks

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon to the batter.
  • If using frozen fruit, thaw and drain before using to avoid excess moisture.
  • Test the cobbler by inserting a toothpick into the batter — it should come out clean when done.

Serving Suggestions

This cobbler is divine when served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The contrast between the hot cobbler and cold ice cream is a treat. Alternatively, try it cold the next day with a dollop of whipped cream for a refreshing dessert.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use canned peaches?
Yes, just be sure to drain them well to avoid excess liquid in the cobbler.

Easy Peach and Blueberry Cobbler Recipe Walkthrough

Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This is crucial for achieving that perfect golden crust. While the oven heats, grease a 9x13 inch baking dish to prevent any sticking. In a large bowl, toss your sliced peaches and blueberries with the lemon juice. This step helps to keep the fruit vibrant and flavorful. Once mixed, evenly spread the fruit in your prepared baking dish.

Next, in another bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. This dry mix forms the base of your batter. Stir in the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until you have a smooth consistency. This batter will be poured over the fruit, so make sure there are no lumps. Pour the batter evenly over the fruit mixture, ensuring it covers the fruit completely.

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes. You're looking for a topping that's golden brown with bubbly fruit peeking through. Once done, let the cobbler cool slightly; this helps the juices thicken up a bit before serving.
