This dessert is a must-have in our house during blueberry season. It’s super easy to make and brings back all those lovely summertime memories. What’s great is that you can use frozen blueberries, so you can enjoy a taste of summer even in the middle of winter. Plus, it only takes about 10 minutes to put together using pantry staples! We’ve discovered that cottage cheese is super versatile and can be used in so many recipes, both sweet and savory, which is why we always have it on hand.

How to make this Blueberry cobbler recipe

To get started, place the blueberries in a large bowl and give them a toss with the lemon juice, lemon zest, cornstarch, and sugar. Once done, transfer the blueberries into a casserole dish and then move on to making the delicious cobbler part of the blueberry cobbler recipe.

NOTE: The cornstarch helps to thicken the blueberry sauce, giving the cobbler a thicker consistency.

Making the cobbler is a breeze! Start by placing the cottage cheese into a food processor, then add the zest of half a lemon and blend until smooth. This is the fun part of the blueberry cobbler recipe! Next, add the sugar, flour, baking powder, melted butter, and vanilla to the food processor, and blend everything together. Easy peasy!

The great part about this blueberry cobbler recipe is you can taste the cobbler before cooking since there aren’t any raw eggs. Let me tell you this is so good. Make sure not to eat too much of it. It’s really good cooked and on top of the blueberries.

Spread the cobbler mixture over the blueberries. Place in a 350-degree oven for 40 minutes or until the cobbler is done.

 frozen blueberries if it isn’t a blueberry season. No need to thaw them first; you’ll just need to add 5 to 10 minutes of baking time to account for the berries starting at a much colder temperature. Keep in mind that frozen blueberries have more liquid than fresh blueberries, so your cobbler will be more jammy and syrupy.
