Magic Blueberry Cobbler

Teresa Ambra
Magic Blueberry Cobbler is magic! This amazing layered dessert features fresh blueberries and a topping with almond and vanilla extracts. Then a glazed sugar is added on top that makes you think of glazed donuts when you eat it. This cobbler is perfect for family, company or holiday dinners since blueberries can be found year round. If you enjoy blueberries, this is a "must make" dessert that will cure your sweet tooth cravings and have you drooling from the first bite.

  • In a small bowl, combine ½ cup sugar and cornstarch.
  • Sprinkle the sugar mixture evenly over the batter.

Notes

NOTE: Because the blueberries bubble up a lot, I recommend putting a cookie sheet underneath the baking dish to collect drips while baking.
