Ingredients for Easy Blueberry Cobbler:
Blueberries: Use fresh or frozen or even canned blueberries. Understand that canned blueberries don’t hold up well though and may tint your batter blue and result in fewer blueberries in the actual cobbler.
If you LOVE BLUEBERRIES, by all means add MORE! Up to 4 cups will work (after that, there isn’t enough breading to hold the cobbler together).
Self Rising Flour: Make sure to use the self rising flour because it has extra ingredients that will puff and fluff the cobbler.
Granulated White Sugar: Because of the easy measurements and few ingredients, I wouldn’t recommend using a sugar substitute in this recipe. Just plain old white sugar will do.
Butter: It’s fine to use a butter substitute if you need to but real butter gives a flavor you can’t get otherwise. Use one stick or 8 tablespoons.
Milk: Use any % of milk you like, but I typically use whole milk for the added flavor and richness. I haven’t tried any milk substitutes with this, so let me know how it turns out!
Vanilla, Almond Extract and Salt: I add these to give a pop of flavor. Certainly not an absolute necessary ingredient for the recipe.

Simply do the following:

Made this for dessert today. Was very yummy. Does need to cook a bit longer though if you use a slightly smaller baking dish.

Hi, looks like a great recipe. However, I'm confused what you do with with the butter. Why is it set aside? Maybe I missed something here..
