Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 15–18 minutes

Total Time: 25–28 minutes

Ingredients

For the Blueberry Filling:

2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon cornstarch

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

For the Cobbler Topping:

½ cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

Pinch of salt

3 tablespoons unsalted butter (cold and cubed)

3 tablespoons milk (any kind)

Optional: turbinado or coarse sugar for sprinkling

Instructions

Preheat the Air Fryer:

Set your air fryer to 330°F (165°C) and let it preheat for about 3 minutes.

Prepare the Filling:

In a mixing bowl, toss blueberries with sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, vanilla, and cinnamon.

Pour the mixture into an oven-safe ramekin or mini baking dish (about 5–6 inches wide).

Make the Cobbler Topping:

In another bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Cut in the cold butter using a fork or your fingers until crumbly.

Stir in the milk until a thick dough forms.

Assemble:

Spoon dollops of the dough over the blueberries. No need to cover fully — leave some gaps for the filling to bubble through.

Sprinkle coarse sugar on top for added crunch (optional).

Air Fry:

Place the ramekin in the air fryer basket carefully.

Air fry at 330°F (165°C) for 15–18 minutes, or until the topping is golden and the blueberries are bubbling.

If browning too fast, loosely cover with foil halfway through.

Cool Slightly:

Let the cobbler rest for 5–10 minutes before serving. This helps the filling thicken.

Tips & Tricks

Frozen blueberries: No need to thaw, just increase cook time by 1–2 minutes.

Smaller servings: Divide into 2 ramekins and reduce cook time to 12–14 minutes.

Flavor twist: Add a pinch of nutmeg or orange zest to the filling.

Serving suggestion: Top with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or Greek yogurt.

Serving Suggestions

Serve warm for best flavor and texture.

Perfect with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream or a drizzle of sweet cream.

Garnish with a mint sprig or extra fresh blueberries for presentation.
