Instructions
Preheat oven to 350˚F.
In a medium bowl, mix blueberries with lemon juice, lemon zest and sugar. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine cake mix, milk and melted butter. Mix with a large spoon for about a minute until batter is smooth.
Spread cake mixture into a 9x13 (or similar size) pan.
Cover the cake mixture with the blueberries.
With a spoon, gently stir/swirl the cake mixture and blueberries until some of the blueberries fall to the bottom and some get slightly covered with the batter (See photo above).
Place cobbler on the center rack of a preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean and the middle of the cobbler is set. Cobbler should start getting golden brown on top. If the edges brown too quickly, cover with foil during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
Allow cobbler to cool for 5-10 minutes, then serve warm with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream!
Notes
Note 1: I always prefer fresh blueberries, but you can use frozen! Make sure you use them frozen (not thawed) and toss them with a teaspoon of cornstarch to help absorb the juices while they cook.Note 2: You do not need to use sugar if your berries are sweet. Remember, there is sugar in the cake mix, so if your berries are sweet, feel free to omit the sugar all together. Nutrition information is only an estimate.
