A Classic Heart-Warming Fruity Dessert
This vegan blueberry cobbler recipe is one of the more comforting recipes on my blog in the sense that it is the type of recipe that I would want as a supper just before bed with either some vegan vanilla ice cream or warm custard.
The warm of the biscuit batter and the blueberries really puts me in a good place.

Tips For Making Blueberry Cobblers
Use Fresh Or Frozen Fruit
Although I used fresh blueberries this recipe, frozen can be a great option too. In fact, as the berries will be thawing as the cobbler cooks, this will make them even juicier!
Serve The Cobbler Warm
This dessert tastes far better when it is warm than it does when it is cold. I am almost certain that you will enjoy it far more when it is warm.
What Is A Cobbler?
A cobbler is a dessert which consists of a fruit filling which is poured into a baking dish and topped with biscuit or batter which happen to look a little bit like cobble stones.
The dessert is then baked until golden brown on top.
How To Assemble This Treat
Once you have combined the blueberry mixture, pour it into an oven-suitable dish (I use a pyrex one) then make the biscuit topping.
I cover most of the blueberries with the biscuit topping but it doesn't matter if it doesn't cover them completely.
Serving The Blueberry Cobbler
Let the cobbler cool for a short while when it comes out from the oven but make sure that you serve this pudding while it is nice and warm.
I recommend serving this blueberry cobbler with vegan vanilla ice cream as the coldness compliments the warm temperature of the treat nicely.
I also like to serve it with vegan custard sometimes which also tastes great.
Customisations & Substitutions
- Use a different type of fruit. Not everyone likes blueberries so why not use a different type of berry instead 1:1? You can even mix multiple types of berries up if you can't decide what you want!
Frequently Asked Questions
You can! If you prefer the blueberries to be even juicier this could be the option for you.
Yes! This recipe also tastes great with berries such as blackberries, raspberries and even strawberries.
This is usually because not enough cornstarch has been added to the initial blueberry mixture.
How To Store Leftover Blueberry Cobbler
Make sure that you store this cobbler inside an airtight container, then place it into the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat the cobbler at 150 Celsius so that the topping doesn't burn.

- 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
For the cobbler batter:
- 100g granulated sugar

Instructions
Preparation:
- Preheat your oven to 177 Celsius (350F).
Make the blueberry mixture:
- In a large bowl, mix the blueberries, granulated sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice and cornstarch. Make sure the blueberries are fully coated.
- Pour the blueberry mixture into an 8x8 inch ovenproof dish.
Make the biscuit topping:
- In the large bowl, combine the sugar, flour, baking powder, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon.
- Separately, mix the softened vegan butter, vanilla and soy milk. Pour it into the dry ingredients bowl and fold to make a thick biscuit batter.
- Use your hands to mould large, flat pieces of biscuit batter (see process shots) and place them over the blueberries inside the ovenproof dish. It doesn’t need to look absolutely perfect as long as most of the berries are covered.
Bake the cobbler:
- Bake your blueberry cobbler in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. The topping should be golden brown.
- The blueberries will be hot and bubbly at this point so let it cool for 15 minutes or so. The blueberries will also thicken a little during the cooling process.
- Serve the cobbler with vegan vanilla ice cream and enjoy.
