Blueberry Skillet Cobbler

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2

Melt 1/2 cup of the butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat.

Step 3

Pour the blueberries, 3/4 cup of the sugar, and the water into the melted butter and cook until a light syrup forms, about 5-8 minutes.

Step 4

Mix together the flour and the remaining sugar.

Step 5

Cut the remaining butter into the flour mixture with a fork just until crumbly.

Step 6

Stir the buttermilk into the flour mixture until just combined. The dough will be very wet and sticky.

Step 7

Stir the blueberries and then drop the dough by large 1/4 cup scoops on top of the berries.

Step 8

Place the skillet in the oven and bake until the dough is cooked through and browned on top, about 15 minutes. The blueberry syrup should have also thickened.

Step 9

Transfer the skillet from the oven and allow it to cool slightly.

Step 10

Serve.
