Ingredients
Fruit
- 2 cups fresh fruit eg blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, peaches, nectarines
- ¼-½ cup sugar (use less if your fruit is really ripe and sweet, use more if it is tart)
- ¼-½ cup water
Batter
- 1 stick butter, margarine, or vegan spread melted
- 1 cup flour works with All Purpose flour or gluten free replacement flour
- 1½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup sugar
- ¾ cup milk whole, skim, almond, or other dairy alternative of choice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°
- Soak berries in sugar and water and set aside
- Melt butter in the microwave if desired. I melt it directly in my 8x8 glass baking dish.
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and milk. Stir to combine. Pour batter evenly over butter in the baking dish.
- Spoon berries evenly over flour mixture. (Don't pour it all in at once as there may be too much liquid in the berries.) Do not stir.
- Bake 40 to 45 minutes. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
Notes
This recipe serves 4-6 people. If you want double this recipe to serve a crowd, bake it in 13x9 pan.
To make ahead of time, prepare the cobbler and refrigerate until ready to bake. If the cobbler is baked cold and straight from the refrigerator, add a 5-10 additional minutes baking time, or until the top is golden and the fruit is bubbly.
