                    BLUEBERRY COBBLER

            Easy delicious cobbler made with fresh blueberries. Served with

                 Ingredients:

                    3 cups fresh blueberries

                    1/2 lemon

 

                    Cake:

                    1 1/8 cups white sugar

                    4 1/2 tablespoons butter, softened

                    1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

                    1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

                    3/4 cup whole milk

 

                    Topping:

                    1 1/2 cups white sugar

                    3/4 teaspoon salt

                    1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch

                    1 pinch ground cinnamon
