This Blueberry Cake Mix Cobbler Recipe is a favorite of my easy cake mix recipes eaten almost right out of the oven AND it makes the entire house smell so delicious!

By now you know that I am all about making something delicious very easily! I love to make recipes from boxed cake mixes because all of the dry ingredients are pre-measured, pre-sifted, and pre-mixed!

With less than 10 minutes of prep-work and less than 30 minutes of baking time, you can be eating this blueberry cobbler made with cake mix within an hour of starting to make it.  How’s that for a quick snack when company calls and says they will be at your house in an hour?  Depending on the company, you could have them pick up some vanilla ice cream to top your treat.

I have said it before and I will say it again….

I have three boys.  These boys have friends.  My house is almost always filled to bursting with testosterone-driven human garbage disposals.  That is just my life.

That means, I have to always have food on hand.  While frozen anything is easy, it is never cheap.  So, I like to keep ingredients on hand for this quick blueberry cobbler recipe that I can quickly whip up when they all pile in the door.

Can you add frozen blueberries to cake mix?

Yes, you can add frozen blueberries to the cake mix! This is a great option to incorporate berries into an easy dessert recipe without having to have fresh fruit on hand.

Just toss the blueberries in a bit of flour before you toss them into the batter. They will thaw as the cobbler bakes.

Does blueberry cobbler freeze well?

One frequent question about easy blueberry cobbler recipes is whether the cobbler freezes well.

In general, cobbler freezes quite nicely as long as it is stored in an airtight container. This will prevent freezer burn and keep the cobbler moist.

When you are ready to enjoy the cobbler, simply thaw it overnight in the fridge or reheat it in the oven.

If you have leftover cobbler, it is best to freeze it within a day or two of baking. Otherwise, the cobbler may start to dry out and will not be as enjoyable.

Therefore, freezing is a great option if you want to enjoy this easy blueberry cobbler recipe all year round.

Can I use a different cake mix for this fruit cobbler?

Yes! One of the best things about this easy recipe is that it works with just about any type of cake mix. You can use a yellow cake mix, white cake mix, lemon cake mix, or even spice cake mix for a festive twist on the classic cobbler.

Can I use different fresh berries for this recipe?

Of course, you can use any type of fresh or frozen fruit you like. If you’re feeling adventurous, try adding a mixture of berries for a colorful and flavor-packed perfect dessert.

So next time you’re in a pinch and need to make a quick dessert, reach for a box of dry cake mix and some frozen fruit. With this simple kitchen hack, you’ll be able to whip up a delicious cobbler in no time!

How do I store leftovers of this blueberry cobbler dump cake?

If you’re lucky enough to have leftovers of this easy cobbler recipe, that just means that you get to enjoy that blueberry dump cake flavor all over again. The best way to store leftovers is to let the cobbler get to room temperature, and then store this great recipe in an airtight container in the fridge.

When you’re ready to eat this homemade blueberry cobbler again, just warm it up in the microwave for a short amount of time, add a scoop of ice cream to the top, and don’t forget to add some ripe blueberries during the blueberry season so that you can get more of the fresh flavor!
