For me, the thing that makes this Fresh Cherry Cobbler special is the fact that it uses FRESH cherries instead of canned. Every time I pop a cherry in my mouth, I am transported back to my grandparents farm which had a cherry orchard. Every summer we’d visit and I’d climb the trees with my cousins and eat so many cherries my lips and fingers would turn red! This cherry cobbler reminds me of a pie that my grandmother would make, except it’s much easier than making pie! And I think it tastes better too!
It couldn’t be easier to make this. I simply melt some butter in a baking dish. I add some batter on top and sprinkle over a mix of cherries coated with sugar. The key to this dish is to resist stirring all the ingredients together!
To make Fresh Cherry Cobbler, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 350 °F.
Place the butter in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Melt the butter in the oven while it is preheating. Once the butter has melted, remove the dish from the oven.
Combine the flour, sugar and baking powder in a medium mixing bowl.
Add the milk and stir well until fully combined.
Pour the batter into the baking dish on top of the butter without stirring.
Add the cherries to a bowl. Stir in the remaining ¾ cup of sugar and 1 tablespoon of flour.
Spread the cherry mixture evenly over the batter without stirring.
Bake for 50-60 minutes until the batter is a golden brown color. Test that it is cooked by inserting a toothpick. If it comes out clean, it’s done.
Serve with ice cream or freshly whipped cream.
