Homemade Cherry Cobbler Recipe

  • Make the topping:
    In another bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add melted butter, milk, and vanilla. Stir until just combined (don’t overmix).
  • Drop spoonfuls of the batter over the cherry mixture. It’s okay if some fruit peeks through—the topping will spread as it bakes.
  • Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.
  • Let cool for 10–15 minutes before serving to allow the juices to thicken slightly.

  • 🍨 Serving Suggestions

    • Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream
    • Sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra warmth
    • Serve warm for the ultimate cozy dessert experience

    🍒 Tips & Variations

    • Using canned cherry pie filling? You can skip the sugar and cornstarch in the filling.
    • Prefer less sugar? Reduce the sugar in both the filling and topping to your taste.
    • Make it gluten-free by using your favorite gluten-free flour blend.
    • Add texture with a handful of oats or sliced almonds on top before baking.
