What is a Cobbler?

Cobblers are popular for their simplicity and versatility. This classic dessert typically consists of a fruit filling topped with a biscuit-like or cake topping. The fruit filling can vary and often includes fresh or frozen fruit.

They are usually baked until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is golden and crisp. The dessert is often served warm, sometimes accompanied by a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

How to Store a Leftover Cobbler

Allow the blueberry cobbler to cool down to room temperature before storing.
Place the cobbler in an airtight container and refrigerate it for 2-3 days.
If you want to store the cobbler for a longer period (up to 3 months), freezing is a great option. Wrap the cooled cobbler tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil, or transfer it to a freezer-safe container or bag. Label the container with the date and contents and freeze.
Frozen cobbler can be thawed in the refrigerator overnight before reheating in the oven or microwave.
