This Easy Fruit Cobbler is a simple yet delicious dessert that can be made with any of your favorite fruits. It’s perfect for a quick and comforting treat.
📋 Ingredients:
- 🍑 4 cups fresh or frozen fruit (such as peaches, berries, apples, or a mix)
- 🍬 1 cup granulated sugar (divided)
- 🥄 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 🌾 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 🥄 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 🧂 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 🥛 1 cup milk
- 🧈 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 🌿 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
📝 Directions:
Prepare the Fruit:
- Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. - Mix Fruit and Sugar:
In a large bowl, combine the fruit, 1/2 cup of the granulated sugar, and the lemon juice. Stir well and set aside.
Prepare the Batter:
- Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, the remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. - Add Wet Ingredients:
Stir in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until just combined. The batter will be slightly lumpy, which is fine.
Assemble the Cobbler:
- Pour Batter:
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. - Add Fruit:
Spoon the fruit mixture evenly over the batter. Do not stir; the batter will rise around the fruit as it bakes.
Bake:
- Bake Cobbler:
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Serve:
- Cool Slightly:
Allow the cobbler to cool for a few minutes before serving. - Serve Warm:
Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
