My Southern blueberry cobbler recipe is super easy. It’s very similar to a blueberry pie recipe, because I use pie crust. I know a lot of people love blueberry crisp, and blueberry cobblers cobblers made with bisquick. However I truly prefer using pie crust for my southern blueberry cobbler.

My favorite cobbler always has a pie crust top……this is perfect. Two fantastic ideas are nutmeg and dumplings in the filling! Who would have thought! Pinned. Thanks for sharing. Have a fun weekend!
I love adding nutmeg to most of my desserts! A little goes a long way, and It adds so much flavor.
Could you use blackberries?
Hi Jo Vernon! Absolutely! 🙂
Thanks Rosie for another dessert. I love your peach cobbler. Its my go to recipe when I have to bring a dessert. I can’t wit try the blueberry.
Hi Veronica! Definitely give this recipe a try 🙂
The smallest Pyrex I could find was a 9×13 I hope it still comes out great
I like a lot of crust. Do you think I could add a bottom layer of crust, like in Peach Cobbler and it come out the same. I was thinking I could lay a crust in the pan and bake it for 10-15 minutes so that it will harden a little and not absorb all of the moisture from the blueberries. Dies this sound doable?
Absolutely! 🙂
Can I use this filling to do a pie?
It might have too much juice for a pie
How about a apple cobbler? My family loves apples
I have tired several of your recipes and they were very good. With both sides of my family coming from the hills of North Carolina, you know how I was taught to cook.
If using frozen blueberries, so you need to thaw them
Yes ma’am 🙂
Tried the recipe today and it came out great!
Rosie your recipes are great, for a 9×13 size pan do I double the recipe for the blueberry cobbler?
Hello! No, you will need a bigger bake dish if you’re doubling the recipe.
Thank you for responding do you think a 9 x 13 would work?
No, a 9 x 13 will not work. You will need a bigger dish.
Thank you so much for responding.
Love this cobbler…Can I use this recipe for blackberry cobbler as well?
