Questions I Often Get Asked About This Recipe
Q: Can I use frozen berries instead of fresh?
A: Yes! Frozen berries work wonderfully in this recipe. No need to thaw them beforehand—just toss them in straight from the freezer.
Q: Can I use just one type of berry?
A: Absolutely. You can use any single berry like blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries. But the mix of berries adds a fun burst of flavors.
Q: How do I store leftovers?
A: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can reheat them in the microwave or oven before serving.
Q: Can I make this cobbler gluten-free?
A: Yes! You can substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Just make sure it’s a 1:1 replacement.
Q: Can I add other fruits to the cobbler?
A: Definitely! Feel free to mix in peaches, apples, or even rhubarb to add some variety and depth to the flavor.

Tips for Making the Best Mixed Berry Cobbler
- Mix and match berries: Don’t be afraid to experiment with different combinations of berries. The more variety, the more exciting the flavors!
- Add a little zest: For an extra burst of flavor, try adding some lemon or orange zest to the berry filling.
