I’ve been making this recipe for peach and blueberry cobbler for as long as I can remember. My mom and I used to drive to Fredericksburg (a little town in Texas) to get fresh peaches right off the tree. As soon as we got home, my mom would request this cobbler. And I always obliged 🙂
It’s a very simple recipe. There are two main parts: the fruit filling and the cobbler topping. For the fruit filling, you simply mix together sugar, cornstarch (to thicken the juices), water and lemon juice in a small pot on the stove. Once that mixture is thick, you pour it over the fruit and the filling is done.
For the cobbler topping, you mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, milk and soft butter. Then you “plop” (that’s an official cooking term) the batter on top of the fruit filling, sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon and you’re ready to bake. Serve, warm, with vanilla ice cream for the most incredible flavor!

Made this today and OMG, it is gorgeous. I had some fresh fruit from the farmers market – an apricot, a white nectarine and a yellow peach that I added plus additional blueberries. Forgot to read the directions and mixed the fruit filling ingredients together so simply poured everything into a pot and cooked it until the sauce thickened, then proceeded with the recipe. You could make this with peaches & blackberries or any fruit that you prefer and it would be fabulous. Can’t wait for dessert tonight. Yummy!!!
