Cherry Cobbler Recipe

Cherry Cobbler Recipe

This cherry cobbler tastes divine served warm, topped with a generous scoop of whipped cream. The recipe, a cherished heirloom from my grandmother, originally called for two cups of fresh, pitted cherries instead of cherry pie filling, making the most of the cherry season’s bounty.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • ½ cup butter
  • 1 can cherry pie filling 21 ounce

Instructions

  • Begin by preheating your oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). As the oven warms, place half a cup of butter into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Insert the dish into the oven to allow the butter to melt gently.
  • While the butter is melting, take a medium-sized mixing bowl and combine the all-purpose flour, white sugar, and baking powder. Mix these dry ingredients thoroughly before blending in the milk to form a smooth batter.
  • Once the butter has completely melted, carefully remove the baking dish from the oven. Pour the prepared batter over the melted butter. It's important not to stir the mixture at this point. Next, evenly distribute the cherry pie filling over the batter, taking care to maintain distinct layers.
  • Adjust the oven's temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place the dish back into the oven and bake for 50 to 60 minutes. You're looking for a beautifully golden crust to form on top, indicating it's perfectly done.
