Gluten Free Blueberry Cobbler From Scratch

One of my Fearless Dining readers, Linda C, sent me an email telling me how much she missed her mother’s blueberry cobbler since going gluten free. When I thought about it, I couldn’t remember the last time I had blueberry cobbler.”

I can’t wait to share this gluten free cobbler recipe with you! It truly is my hope it brings back memories of what your mom made. I will confess and say I didn’t simmer the blueberries in a pot, I found they cook up beautifully while baking in the oven.

This homemade cobbler is sweet and full of fresh blueberry flavors. Grandma would be proud to serve this recipe for blueberry cobbler. Nobody will ever know it is gluten free! If you want to try another great recipe, you will want to make these Gluten Free Blueberry Scones!

Do you know what is even better about this recipe? This gluten free blueberry cobbler recipe is also dairy-free! Just use a dairy-free coconut whipped cream like So Delicious brand.

I used a slightly sweet biscuit-like cake as a gluten free cobbler topping. It adds a great flavor to this cobbler recipe without competing against the fresh blueberries. If you prefer a paleo (grain-free) biscuit topping, try this Paleo Peach Cobbler topping.

LOL, I learned a valuable lesson making this cobbler. Don’t leave it unguarded in the kitchen. My husband and son couldn’t resist helping the taste test!

How to make this gluten free blueberry cobbler recipe:

It really is easy…grab some fresh blueberries and preheat your oven to 350 degrees F!

Add your dry ingredients to a bowl and whisk to blend.

In a smaller bowl, add the wet ingredients and mix. Pour into your dry ingredients and mix.

In another bowl, add your blueberries and mix in the ingredients for the blueberries. Toss to coat the blueberries. Add to a greased 8×8 pan.

Spread the cobbler breading on top of the blueberry mixture. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30-40 minutes (depending on how thick you add the topping and the size of your baking pan).

Spoon onto a plate and top with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream!

Can you use frozen blueberries in this recipe?

You can use fresh or frozen blueberries in this cobbler recipe. Note if you use frozen blueberries that your blueberry mixture will be a little wetter.

How do you know when this cobbler is done baking?

This cobbler recipe is finished baking when the top is firm to touch. You can insert a toothpick into the biscuit topping. If the toothpick comes back dry, and the blueberry bottom is bubbly, the cobbler is ready.

    Blueberry Cobbler is a MUST during the summer. I’m so glad I stumbled upon your GF recipe, it’s SO good!

    I tried this recipe today according to instructions. The flour mixture was very pourable and definitely not as thick as shown in the video. I used King Arthur Gluten free all purpose flour. It came out good but it stayed in the oven another 10 minutes to firm up and it came out more cake-like than cobbler like. Next time I’ll try it with a 1/2 cup of almond milk instead of 2/3 cup.

      Hi Marilyn, Thank you so much for your note. I will make a note in the recipe for people. I haven’t used that particular flour blend that you used. Thank you!

    So only two people who commented actually tried this recipe, and it failed for both. Why does this have a 5 star rating? I’d like to try the recipe but I don’t want to waste the ingredients if it’s not going to work well, and it’s frustrating for the star ratings to mean nothing.

    Also, the calorie count seemed low so I plugged it into a calorie counter and got 193 calories per serving for 9 servings (which is still not bad).

    For Diane who doesn’t cook with oil, she could try using applesauce. That sometimes works as a substitute in baked goods.

      Hi Darryl, Thank you so much for your note. That is a great tip to use applesauce, I haven’t tried that for a cobbler topping, but I hope Diane writes in to let us know if that worked. As for the recipe, I have made it several times. This recipe didn’t come out the same for one person, I am not sure where you see two people, but if they used a different gluten free flour, that is probably why. Each brand of gluten free flour blend works differently and if someone tries a different flour, then it is hard for me to advise. I hope this helps clear up a few of your questions.

      Hi Diane, I am not sure what you can substitute for butter/oil. I haven’t tested anything else and I think the dough needs this so that the topping isn’t as hard as a rock. I am so sorry.

    Hi, I love this recipe and think it has a lot of promise but I am having a problem with it and hope you can help. I have made it exactly as stated. The first time it came out with the blueberries equally distributed within the cobbler topping – more like a coffee cake. I just made it a second time and watched the video. The batter you make is much thicker than the batter I ended up with. Using 2/3 cup of almond milk and 2/3 cup of flour blend, being equal amounts, I am not sure how your batter is so thick. I added some more flour so it looked like yours in the video. It is in the oven now, and I sure hope it turns out great! If not I will go back to making it the other way. It was delicious the first time, just did not look like a cobbler. Thanks for any help you can give! Robin

    Can I substitute melted butter for the coconut oil? I have a son who is allergic to coconut and a daughter who needs gluten free!

      Hi Susan, butter would be great for a substitute. I hope your son loves this as much as my son does. Take care.

        Just an fyi, I will have to use vegan butter & NO coconut because coconut is Not good for those of us with a high cholesterol problem.

    I think the baking powder amount is too high. I made this and can’t eat it because it tastes so much like baking powder. Is it supposed to be 1.5 tsps?

    Cobbler is one of our favorite family desserts. We try to have it a few times a year, especially when peaches are in season, but blueberry and blackberry are also a favorite. We will have to try this one next time!
