I brought this cobbler to small group last night. It was a huge hit. The recipe is one passed down from my Aunt Lois. The cherries came off my friend, Laurie’s tree. I love connecting with food like that. It means I can love it more.
Here’s what you’ll need:
2 – 2 1/2 cups sweetened fruit
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. baking powder
1 cup milk
1/2 cup butter
*Note* I used about twice the amount of fruit called for and 1 1/2 times the batter recipe. This made a pretty big pan. You can use sour pitted cherries or blackberries or even mixed berries. Just add about a cup of sugar (or since I had twice the fruit, I used nearly 2 cups of sugar) to sweeten the fruit.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Put the stick of butter in the pan and pop it in the oven to melt the butter. In a bowl combine the sugar, flour, salt, baking powder and milk. Take the pan with the melted butter out of the oven and pour the batter over the top of the butter, like this.
Place the fruit over the batter. If your fruit is very juicy, dip it out with a slotted spoon. Some juice is okay, but you don’t want too much.
Bake it at 375 degrees for 45 minutes. When it comes out of the oven it will look like this.
People will love you for making this for them. If you serve it warm with ice cream they might even hug your neck. Make it and count the hugs you get.
Thanks for this, I have been looking for a cobbler recipe and this one looks amazing!!
Happy SITS day!
I am soooo excited for the huckleberry season to start so I can make this recipe mmmmmmm. I am literally drooling.
My husband would love this. I’ll print out the recipe so he can make it.
And me with all those blueberries in the fridge. Hmmm…
Oh my, I printed this one out:)
I am on a diet during the week but I will be trying this on the weekend.
I’m gonna try this with Strawberries and blackberries:)
Mmmmmmmmm. I made a peach cobbler last night and now I wish I would have brought some to work with me!
Lovely recipe! But what I really want to know is where did you get that adorable butterfly coffee mug??
Jessica, the butterfly mug is part of a set of measuring cups that came from Pier 1. They aren’t quite accurate in their measurements, but they’re cute
Look yummy…..I will have to try this.
But I have never heard of making cobbler this way. All cobblers I know, the dough is placed on top of the fruit.
There’s a first time for everything.
Thanks for sharing….
WOW! That looks like it’s about 18 different kinds of delicious… Can’t wait ’til it’s cherry season again in Australia. I’ll definitely be trying this one out. Thanks, SITSer!
My girls made a cobbler last week that was – well, let’s just say we kept the warm fruit and had the berries over ice-cream.
Copying your recipe, it looks way more appetizing.
Definitely love this one too!
yum – my hubbie would love this!
My husband was just asking me to bake him something delicious. Thank you so much for this recipe. Yummness
I think I gained a few pounds just browsing your site! My husband loves cherries too (in fact we made a cherry crisp for Father’s Day per his request) so this will be a winner in his book too. Enjoy your day in the SITS spotlight.
YUMMY YUMMY!! It isn’t even 8:30 yet (here in CA) and you had my mouth watering for dessert!!
My mouth is seriously watering!
I am drooling. And I want it with ice cream! MMMM a la mode.
Okay, that’s it. I’m gonna paste you into my Blogger Dashboard so I’ll be stalking, errr I mean following you!!
Thanks for all the yummies! Happy SITS Feature Day!! Yay!

I love a good cobbler. I even make it in the slow cooker!
I’ll be waiting for a few cherries to fall on my side of the fence off my neighbours tree and use this recipe. I can taste it now!

This looks so awesome! Happy SITS day – I’ve been here before and I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything I wouldn’t like to try
Yum! I may just try making myself some. Thanks.

I see vanilla ice cream in this cobbler’s future.
Oh my gosh – my tummy is rumbling. I am trying this one TONIGHT!
I agree with Jeannie, just add vanilla ice cream!
Cobbler of any kind is my charming son-in-law’s favorite, he’s from Vermont. I’ll have to make this for him! Happy SITS!
