I know we aren’t quite at summer, but that hasn’t stopped me from daydreaming about sunshine, cookouts, and most importantly – all of my favorite fruity desserts! Some of my favorite fruity desserts that I indulge in all summer long include Fresh Strawberry Crisp, Easy Fruit Galette, and Lemon Blueberry Cake. This summer, I plan on adding another staple to that ever-growing list… Crockpot Blueberry Cobbler! It’s the perfect way to use up all of those juicy, ripe blueberries and couldn’t be easier to make. If you’re looking to add something blue to your 4th of July spread, this is the dessert for you!
Why make Blueberry Cobbler in the Crockpot?
Oven baked cobblers are tasty, but there’s something about slowly cooking a cobbler that makes it that much better. When you cook the ingredients all in one pot over the span of 3 hours or so, the flavors all have time to meld together and the consistency is just a dream. Plus, as is true with just about all slow cooker recipes, this Blueberry Cobbler is delightfully easy to make. Just set it and forget it!
Oh, and your kitchen will smell better than any Bath and Body Works candle could ever make it smell. That should be enough to make you go plug in that slow cooker ASAP!
How to Make Blueberry Cobbler in the Crockpot
Create the cobbler filling. Stir the blueberries, sugar, cornstarch and brown sugar together in a large bowl then pour it out into a large crockpot and spread it out.
Create the dough topping. Stir the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt together in a separate large bowl then cut the butter into the mixture until a fine grain starts to form. Pour in the milk and stir to combine until it forms a stiff dough.
Assemble and cook the cobbler. Crumble it around the top of the blueberry mix evenly then cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on low for 3 ½ hours or on high for 2 hours or until the top turns a light golden color and forms a nice crust.
Enjoy! Serve with vanilla ice cream and fresh mint for garnish if desired.
Ingredients Notes:
Blueberries – You can use frozen blueberries, but fresh is better. If you make this seasonal dessert during the summertime as intended, you should be able to access fresh, ripe blueberries either at the grocery store or local farmer’s market! For the all time best results, check out your local you-pick berry farm. Just remember to rinse the berries prior to cooking!
Brown Sugar – All out of brown sugar? Don’t panic – as long as you have white granulated sugar and molasses, you’re in good shape. Simply combine one cup of white sugar with one tablespoon of molasses to create a cup of brown sugar.
Enjoy!

Looks delicious! However, when I doubled the recipe in one crockpot, I had too much of the dough topping (for a 6-quart). So doubling the blueberries is fine, but not the topping.
