• 1 teaspoon baking powder ✨
• Dash of salt 🧂
• 1 quart sweetened fruit (such as peaches, cherries, or blackberries) 🍑

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare for Baking 🍳

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Place the stick of butter or margarine in a 9×13 inch baking pan and melt it in the oven while it preheats. Once melted, remove the pan from the oven and set aside.

Step 2: Make the Batter 🫓

1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and a dash of salt.
2. Gradually stir in the milk until the batter is smooth and well combined.

Step 3: Assemble the Cobbler 🍑

1. Carefully pour the batter over the melted butter in the baking pan. Do not stir.
2. Spoon the sweetened fruit evenly over the top of the batter. Do not stir.

Step 4: Bake and Serve 🎉

1. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour, or until the top is golden brown and the cobbler is bubbly around the edges.
2. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
3. Serve warm, optionally topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra decadent touch.

💡 Tips for Success:

• Use Fresh or Canned Fruit : Fresh peaches work beautifully, but canned or frozen fruit (drained) is a great shortcut.
• Add a Splash of Flavor : Stir in a teaspoon of vanilla extract or almond essence into the batter for a hint of extra flavor.
• Storage : Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave for a warm treat.
