Easy Blueberry Ginger Cookie Cobbler. This is your classic, old-fashioned cobbler—with a deliciously unexpected twist. Summer blueberries baked beneath a soft, chewy brown sugar cookie topping with hints of molasses and warm ginger. It’s like a gingery blueberry cookie in cobbler form—and when served warm with vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, it’s completely delicious.

I am so excited to share this one with you. I’ve been testing the recipe over the past month—between travel and stormy summer weather, it took a little time for this cobbler to fully come to life. But once it did… it became something really special.

At first, I started with my go-to cinnamon-spiced topping. It was delicious, but I kept feeling like it needed something more. Then it hit me—molasses and ginger! The combo adds just the right amount of moisture, depth, and that cozy, spiced cookie flavor we all love in a gingerbread or snack cookie.

Mix in warm, jammy blueberries, and the result is something a little different—but so delicious. It’s simple to make, cozy but summery, and such a fun twist on a classic. Trust me, you have to try this one!

Steps

Step 1: Melt the butter

Preheat the oven to 375°F. While it’s heating, place a stick of butter in a 9×13-inch baking dish (or something similar in size) and set it in the oven to melt. Keep an eye on it so the butter doesn’t burn—just melt until fully liquid and golden.

Step 2: Mix the batter

While the butter melts, whisk together the flour, baking powder, ground ginger, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
Stir in the brown sugar, molasses (trust me on this one!), vanilla, and milk. Mix until just combined. The batter should be pourable—similar to thick pancake batter. If needed, add a splash of milk to loosen it slightly.

Step 3: Prep the berries

In a bowl, toss the fresh blueberries with brown sugar and a couple tablespoons of flour. This helps thicken the filling as it bakes and makes the berries jammy and sweet.

Step 4: Assemble and bake

Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir! Spoon the sugared blueberries over the batter. As the cobbler bakes, the batter will rise up around the fruit, creating a golden, cookie-like crust.
Bake for 40–45 minutes, until the top is set and golden and the berries are bubbling around the edges. Your kitchen will smell incredible!

Step 5: Serve and enjoy

Let the cobbler cool for 10–15 minutes, then serve warm with scoops of vanilla ice cream or freshly whipped cream. It’s cozy, nostalgic, and dangerously delicious. The brown sugar ginger cookie topping is truly what makes this cobbler extra special—and totally addicting!

    1. Hey Maureen,
      Totally, that would be just fine for you to do! I hope you love this recipe, please let me know if you give it a try!

    1. Hey Jo,
      Sure, you could make this in advance and then pop in the oven on low to warm it. Ramekins should also work nicely for you. I hope you love this recipe!

    I made this last night and enjoyed it very much, though for our tastes we would add a lot more ginger to the mix. I halved the recipe and maybe used a dish that was too big but that can be easily remedied! It looked like a lot of fruit to me for the amount of batter.

    Love the facility of halving the ingredients – though the changed measurements didn’t come through to the body of the recipe. Also – for us poor Aussies – please could you include a weight measurement for a “stick” of butter? (I looked it up but it would be great not to have to!)

    Lovely recipe, thank you. I look forward to cooking it again.

    1. Hi Alic! So glad you enjoyed the recipe! Extra ginger sounds great, and yes a smaller dish helps when halving. Thanks for the note on the scaled measurements and butter weights, I’ll keep that in mind for next time! 🙂 xT

    1. So glad you loved this cobbler Angela! Thanks so much for giving the recipe a try! Have a lovely weekend! xT

  2. This is actually going to be my bday “cake” next week! Question: if we swap the blueberries out for fresh peaches would any other measurements need to be adjusted? I can’t wait to try this!

    1. Hi LeAnne! Aw happy birthday to you! Yes, you can definitely sub peaches and the measurements shouldn’t need to be adjusted! 🙂 xT
