Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (21 ounces) canned cherry pie filling
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
Grease a microwave-safe 8x8-inch dish or similar-sized microwavable container.
Spread the canned cherry pie filling evenly across the bottom of the dish.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter by microwaving it in 15-second intervals until fully liquid. Set aside.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Pour the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined to make a thick batter.
Spoon the batter over the cherry pie filling, spreading it out gently but not necessarily evenly — it’s okay for some cherries to peek through.
Sprinkle the top of the batter with ground cinnamon for extra flavor.
Place the dish in the microwave and cook on high power for 7 to 8 minutes. The cobbler is done when the topping is set and no longer sticky to the touch.
Carefully remove the dish from the microwave (it will be hot!) and let the cobbler cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
