Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups mixed fresh or frozen fruit (e.g., peaches, berries, apples)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the butter in a 9x9-inch (or similarly sized) baking dish and let it melt in the oven as it preheats. Keep an eye on it to prevent browning.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add the milk and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth batter forms.
Once the butter has melted, carefully remove the baking dish from the oven. Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter. Do not stir.
Scatter the mixed fruit evenly over the batter. It's okay if some fruit sinks; this will happen as it bakes.
Sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon (if using) over the fruit for added sweetness and flavor.
Bake the cobbler in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow the cobbler to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a classic pairing.
