At first, you may think, how can these ingredients work together? But trust me, they will! Here’s how it goes –
- Preheat the oven to 350º F.
- Spray a 9×13 inch pan with non-stick cooking spray.
- Add 2 cups of blueberries to the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle granulated sugar over the blueberries.
- Sprinkle the dry lemon cake mix evenly over the blueberries.
- Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the dry cake. Add 1 cup of blueberries on top of the cake.
- Place the baking dish in the oven and bake the Blueberry Lemon Cobbler until it’s brown around the edges, golden in the center, and puffy in the middle, 30–35 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes, then serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
SUBSTITUTIONS AND ADDITIONS
Add other fruit. This recipe is super convenient and can be adjusted and substituted per your choosings. Instead of blueberries, add peaches, cherries, pineapple, apple, etc. Almost every fruit will work in the cobbler recipe, fresh or frozen.
Skip the lemon flavor. If you don’t prefer lemon flavor in your dessert, skip it by substituting the lemon cake mix to vanilla cake mix.
Add more fillings. You can experiment in the kitchen and add cream cheese filling or lemon curd into this recipe.
