Indulge in the irresistibly simple and scrumptious "Cherry Cobbler Too Easy Delicious to Be True"—a timeless dessert that comes together in just 10 minutes of prep time! Featuring layers of rich, buttery batter and vibrant cherry pie filling, this recipe creates the perfect balance of sweetness and tang. The magic happens in the oven, where the batter rises through the cherries, creating a golden, buttery crust with juicy pockets of fruit. With pantry staples like all-purpose flour, sugar, and baking powder, paired with the convenience of canned cherry pie filling, this cobbler is as effortless as it is delightful. Perfect for weeknight treats, potlucks, or holiday gatherings, serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the ultimate comforting dessert.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place the stick of butter in a 9x9-inch baking dish and put it in the oven to melt as the oven preheats. Keep an eye on it to prevent browning.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix until well incorporated.
Pour in the milk and vanilla extract, then stir until a smooth batter forms.
Carefully remove the hot baking dish with the melted butter from the oven. Pour the batter evenly over the butter, but do not stir.
Spoon the canned cherry pie filling evenly over the batter. Again, do not mix; the cherries will sink and create a delicious layered effect during baking.
Place the dish back in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden brown and bubbling on top.
Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes. Serve warm, optionally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
