When it’s blueberry season, Skillet Blueberry Cobbler is always on the menu. It’s an easy dessert to serve with any meal, special occasion, or even entertaining.
Every spring here in Florida, I always look forward to blueberry picking. We have a couple of really nice U-pick farms close by and in 15 minutes we fill up a couple of buckets with plump, juicy, and sweet blueberries just waiting to turn into a cobbler.
The rows are clean and we never have to bend over to pick them. The bushes are tall enough for all heights of people who want to pick. I love watching the little ones with their little buckets having a great time picking blueberries and sampling a few. There are several varieties growing to make sure there are plenty of blueberries.
The leftover berries will be washed and completely dried, laid on sheet pans, put in the freezer to flash freeze them, and then transferred to freezer bags to last until the next season.
Oh, and in case you are wondering this cobbler goes great with vanilla ice cream!

There’s nothing better than freshly picked blueberries – unless it’s a blueberry cobbler. Your cobbler looks so delicious and I love that it’s made in a skillet.
Ooo yes. I just love blueberries. I’ll be making this cobbler for sure. I’ve never tried to make it on a skillet, so this will be fun.
Oh my gosh this is right my up my alley. Looks so yummy. I have to make this on a cheat day!
I love blueberries, so this cobbler is up my alley! I also love that you can make it in a skillet. I have to put mine to work now to make this!
I’ve never tried blueberry cobbler before. I could imagine how it taste warm out of the oven with vanilla ice cream.
My mom always made desserts when I was a kid, but I don’t do that very often. I really should more! This looks like a delicious recipe to get started on!
Mmm, I haven’t had a cobbler in a while. I totally want to make this. With blueberries coming into season soon, I am totally making it. Thanks!
Oh I haven’t been berry picking since I was little, such fun memories. We do have fruit trees in the yard though so the kids have to get out and pick when they are ripe. 🙂 The blueberry cobbler looks delicious!
Now that’s a great way to make use of those fresh blueberries. I’d really like to do this soon!
This looks so good! Our blueberries won’t be ripe until August, but I’m looking forward to making this before then.
This blueberry cobbler would go well with some ice cream — a la mode! YUm! Can’t wait to try it with my mom next time she’s in town.
How convenient to be able to pick your own berries and make something so delicious. We love baking around here — doesn’t happen as often anymore with a toddler.
Yummy! Homemade blueberry cobbler is my favorite and to make it in a skillet? Pure genius!
Blueberry cobbler you can’t go wrong with that, I want to try making this for a family reunion.
Oh, this looks so good! It will be even more better with vanilla ice cream. Yummy!
Tammy, that looks soooo good. I’d love to have a dish of that in front of me right this minute! I need to look into u-pick places. #HappinessIsHomemade

Have a wonderful week.
This recipe looks so ‘Little House on the Prairie’ and Laura Ingalls Wilder-inspired. Love it. Love the idea of baking the cobbler in an iron skillet. Going to pin this and hope to make it very soon. Your photos are lovely and I can almost taste that sweet yumminess.
