Blueberry Cobbler
« on: April 07, 2011, 05:50:16 am »
No sticky, overly-sweet pie filling in this cobbler.  Fresh or frozen blueberries give this a great flavor.

  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 Tbsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 4 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp. grated lemon zest.
  • 1 tsp. lemon juice
  • 2 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup water

Preparation:
Melt butter in a 12-inch dutch oven using 10-12 briquettes bottom heat.
