buttermilk blueberry yumminess

garden to table

i set sail to try to make a blueberry upside down cake.  not wanting to use the 2 sticks of butter that should have gone into the dessert i decided to use a little less.  i figured that if anything i was really making a cobbler if the upside down part didn’t happen.  as i suspected i ended up with a cobbler.

  • 6 tablespoons butter, softened, divided
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 3/4 cup organic cane sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-1/4 cups AP flour
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 cup buttermilkdirectionspre-heat oven to 350 degrees

    mix the blueberries and 1 Tbsp butter in a 8 x 8 inch size pan or a medium sized cast iron skillet.  then mix the rest of the ingredients in a medium sized bowl.  spoon the mixture on top of the blueberries.  it is ok if it looks a little rustic.

    bake for 40 minutes or until the top looks slightly browned.

    serve it up alongside some freshly whipped cream.  i added a touch of maple syrup and some orange zest.
