With a crisp biscuit topping and warm blueberry filling, this home-style cobbler sure doesn't taste light—but it is! —Mary E. Relyea, Canastota, New York

This is delicious...surprised me that the dough was so thin, but baked up beautifully. This is a COBBLER though for those thinking it's not sweet enough or so on..not a crisp or a crumble so expect it to be more biscuit/pancake like and less sweet, and to want ice cream or whipped cream...although I could happily eat this one without!

This was ok, but not something I will make again. I did make changes though, by substituting whole wheat "white" flour, and splenda instead of sugar, but the topping was way too thick for our taste. It was mostly breading with a little blueberry "jam". without ice cream on top, we wouldn't have eaten it.

Being on a restricted diet, I don't consider the equivalent of 3 bread servings for one helping diabetic friendly.

I always use juice instead of zest because I hate the taste of the pith that gets in it. Besides that it's a pain in the backside to get the zest. Juice is easier and never has any nasty tasting surprises. I want to thank the poeple that rated this recipe low because of the top. This made me want ot make this one. A cobbler is supposed to have a thicker crust than a pie and they don't have a crumb topping either. I suggest that the one that rated her version with cherries with 3 stars quit making substitutions and then putting the original recipe down because your version is nasty. next time follow the recipe as written and rate that recipe.

I cut back on the cornstarch to 2 T, and still thought the filling was a bit too stiff. Could be that some varieties of blueberries are juicer than others, or it could be that I substituted stevia for the sugar (or both). I forgot the lemon peel, but it was still good. I'd add a tad more buttermilk to the crust next time because it was a little hard to spread over the berries. However, my husband enjoyed it very much with no-added-sugar vanilla ice cream.

The blueberries were good, but the top was just too thick. I think that I would rather stick with crumbly topping for my cobbler. I would not make this again.

The cinnamon and nutmeg make this recipe incredibly good.

My husband LOVED this..he had three portions in a short time. I always add more spice win my recipes. I try to cook healthy, so I used WW flour and sucanat and it was still very good.

We had just picked fresh blueberries, so this was a treat.
