Ingredients

For the berries:

4 cups frozen blueberries
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon cornstarch

For the topping:

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons + 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar
¼ cup cold vegan butter
1 cup plant-based milk (any type)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Place blueberries in a baking dish and sprinkle on the sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Mix with a spoon and allow to sit as you prepare the dough.
To make your dough: In a medium mixing bowl, add the flour, baking powder, salt and 2 tablespoons of sugar and whisk until thoroughly mixed. Cut in the butter. To do this, cut the butter into small chunks using a sharp knife, taking care not to melt the butter. Add the chopped butter to the flour mixture, and working quickly with dry hands, massage the butter and flour mixture together until incorporated and only small chunks of butter remain. Finally, add the plant-based milk and mix with a spoon to form a thick dough.
Using the spoon, add dollops of the dough on top of the blueberry mixture in the baking dish, leaving some spots exposed. This doesn't have to look neat and even—cobblers should have a rustic look! Sprinkle the remaining sugar on top of the dough.
Bake for 50 minutes, or until the dough turns a very light golden color and a toothpick inserted into the middle of the dough comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow cool.
Serve with a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream (or vegan whipped cream) and enjoy!

Notes

Storage: If you have leftovers, store them in the fridge for 4-5 days.
Reheating: You can reheat it in the oven or microwave, but honestly, it’s just as delicious cold—straight from the fridge with a fork is totally acceptable!
Mix it up: Not a blueberry fan? Swap in strawberries, peaches, blackberries, or even a mix of your favorite fruits. Cobbler is flexible like that.
Top it like a pro: Serve warm with a scoop of vegan ice cream, a dollop of whipped cream, or a swirl of thick coconut yogurt.
Make it yours: Feeling fancy? Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the topping for extra cozy vibes, or sprinkle chopped nuts for a little crunch.
Rustic is perfect: Don’t worry about making the topping look perfect—cobblers are meant to be charmingly imperfect. Think rustic, not Instagram-perfect.
