Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 190 grams all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 240 milliliters milk
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 540 grams canned cherry pie filling
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 15 grams powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and grease a 9x9-inch (23x23 cm) baking dish.
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave, then pour it into the prepared baking dish.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Add the milk and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Stir until just combined, forming a smooth batter.
Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir; the butter should remain at the bottom.
Spoon the canned cherry pie filling evenly over the batter. Again, do not stir; the cherries should rest on top of the batter.
Lightly sprinkle the ground cinnamon over the cherry filling for added warmth and flavor.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top of the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
Remove the cobbler cake from the oven and allow it to cool slightly for about 10-15 minutes.
Optionally, dust the top with powdered sugar before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a truly delightful dessert!
