Hi friends! So I was at Aldi the other day (are YOU an Aldi shopper?) and I noticed a stack of canned blueberries in their special buys section. I always peruse that aisle because the random stuff they have there almost always inspires me to invent a new recipe. Anyway, I instantly thought of my easy cobbler recipe, and though I usually make this with peaches, I figured I could try a blueberry cobbler this time.
This blueberry cobbler is so easy, your kids could make it. If you have kids who like to “help” in the kitchen, give them this recipe and ask them to make the family a dessert for after dinner. It only takes 5 ingredients, and they can even mix it up in the baking dish, although I prefer to use a bowl first. (But that’s just the control freak in me talking. It’s probably easier for little hands not to have to pour the batter from the bowl to the dish. So have at it!)
Blueberry Cobbler
1/2 c. butter, softened
1 c. sugar
1 c. self-rising flour
1 c. milk
1 can blueberries in light syrup
Cream the butter and sugar together. Add the flour and milk and mix until smooth. Pour the batter into a 9×9 greased baking dish.
Pour the blueberries (with their juice) right over top of the batter.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until the top is golden.
This is delicious right out of the oven with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, but it also tastes great the next day with a cup of coffee!
If you like this with blueberries, you’ll love it with canned peaches! Granted, fresh fruit is better for you, but when you just want a quick and easy dessert, this is perfect. Hope you enjoy it!

Oh come on, you’re killing me girl, looks so good. Baked goods are my biggest downfall, need to lose about 20 lbs. before swimsuit season. Of course hubs can eat like big piggy, doesn’t gain ever, just not fair. I look at food and gain 5 lbs. What’s a person to do?
Great recipe, can I use canned cherries? Will try this soon, think am glad you shared, lol.
Enjoy rest of week/weekend.
Haha! Sorry! But yes, I think canned cherries would work as long as they’re in juice. Pie filling wouldn’t work.
