Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh or frozen cherries pitted
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter cubed
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon optional
Instructions
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the Cherry Filling:
- In a medium bowl, combine cherries, 3/4 cup sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
- Toss to coat the cherries evenly and set aside.
Make the Cobbler Topping:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon (if using).
- Add cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or fork to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour in milk and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Assemble the Cobbler:
- Pour the cherry mixture into a greased 9-inch baking dish.
- Drop spoonfuls of the cobbler batter on top of the cherries, covering as much of the surface as possible.
Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the cherries are bubbling.
Serve:
- Let the cobbler cool for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
