Ingredients
- 21 oz canned cherry pie filling
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
Melt the butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish by placing it in the preheating oven. Once melted, carefully remove the dish from the oven and set aside.
Step 3
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir to mix evenly.
Step 4
Gradually add the milk to the dry ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth and well combined.
Step 5
Pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish, but do not stir. Let the batter spread out naturally.
Step 6
Spoon the canned cherry pie filling evenly over the batter, ensuring cherries are distributed throughout. Again, do not stir—this will help create the cobbler’s layered texture.
Step 7
Sprinkle the ground cinnamon evenly over the top for added flavor.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the cobbler’s crust is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the crust comes out clean.
Step 9
Allow the cobbler to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy it warm, optionally paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
