Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups fresh or frozen fruit (e.g., peaches, berries, or apples)
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the unsalted butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish and put it in the oven while it preheats. Allow the butter to melt completely, then carefully remove the dish from the oven.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
Stir the milk and vanilla extract into the dry ingredients. Mix until a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir; the batter will naturally spread as it bakes.
Evenly distribute the fruit over the batter. If using frozen fruit, no need to thaw it first. Sprinkle the brown sugar and optional ground cinnamon on top of the fruit.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the cobbler comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow the cobbler to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
