Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups fresh or frozen fruit (such as peaches, berries, or apples)
- 0.5 teaspoon optional: ground cinnamon or nutmeg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place the butter in an 8x8-inch baking dish and put it in the preheating oven to melt. Keep an eye on it to ensure it doesn’t burn.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Stir the milk and vanilla extract into the dry ingredients until a smooth batter forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Remove the baking dish with the melted butter from the oven. Carefully pour the batter directly over the melted butter. Do not stir; the butter will create a nice crust.
Evenly distribute the fruit over the batter. If using, sprinkle the top with cinnamon or nutmeg for added flavor.
Bake in the oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden brown and the batter has risen around the fruit.
Let the cobbler cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, optionally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!
