Preparation

1. 1.
   Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. 2.
   In a large mixing bowl, combine the blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir gently until the blueberries are coated in the sugar mixture. Let it sit for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
3. 3.
   In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
4. 4.
   Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
5. 5.
   Pour in the milk and stir until the dough comes together.
6. 6.
   Transfer the blueberry mixture to a 9x9-inch (23x23cm) baking dish. Drop spoonfuls of the dough evenly over the blueberries.
7. 7.
   Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the blueberry filling is bubbling and the crust is golden brown.
8. 8.
   Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
9. 9.
   Serve warm, either on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgence.

Treat your ingredients with care...

• Blueberries — Ensure the blueberries are fresh and plump for the best flavor. Rinse them gently before using and remove any stems.
• Almond flour — If you don't have almond flour, you can substitute it with an equal amount of all-purpose flour or use finely ground almonds.
• Butter — Make sure the butter is cold and cubed to achieve a flaky crust. If the butter starts to soften, refrigerate the dough for a few minutes before baking.

Tips & Tricks

• For a twist, add a handful of fresh raspberries or blackberries to the blueberry filling.
• Serve the cobbler warm for the best taste and texture.
• If you prefer a sweeter filling, increase the amount of sugar in the blueberry mixture.
• Leftover cobbler can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated before serving.
• Experiment with different spices like cardamom or ginger to add a unique flavor profile to the cobbler.

Serving advice

Serve the Blueberry Bliss Cobbler warm as a standalone dessert or with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream. The combination of warm blueberry filling and cold ice cream creates a delightful contrast of temperatures and textures.

Presentation advice

To enhance the presentation, dust the top of the cobbler with powdered sugar before serving. You can also garnish with a sprig of fresh mint or a few extra blueberries for an elegant touch.
