Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 cup flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups canned or fresh fruit (e.g., peaches, berries, or apples), including syrup if canned
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Place the butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish and put the dish in the oven until the butter is melted. This should take 4-5 minutes. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 4

Add the milk and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients, and stir until a smooth batter forms.

Step 5

Carefully remove the baking dish with the melted butter from the oven. Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter. Do not stir.

Step 6

Evenly distribute the fruit over the batter. If using canned fruit, include a bit of the syrup for extra sweetness. Again, do not stir; the batter will rise around the fruit as it bakes.

Step 7

If desired, sprinkle ground cinnamon over the top for added flavor.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the batter comes out clean.

Step 9

Allow the cobbler to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
