Description
A straightforward recipe for a classic cherry cobbler dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups fresh or frozen cherries (pitted)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter (cubed)
- 1/2 cup milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
- In a saucepan, combine cherries, 1 cup sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the mixture thickens, about 5 to 7 minutes. Pour the cherry filling into the prepared baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the milk until just combined; do not overmix.
- Drop spoonfuls of the batter evenly over the cherry filling.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- If using frozen cherries, do not thaw them before cooking the filling.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
