Ingredients

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup all purpose flour
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 21-ounce can premium canned cherry pie filling

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place the butter in the bottom of a 9x9 inch or equivalent size baking dish. Put the dish into the oven and melt the butter. Once melted, remove the dish from the oven.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. In a measuring cup, combine the milk and vanilla extract. Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture and stir to combine.
Pour the flour mixture over the melted butter in the baking pan, but do not mix them together. Spoon the cherry pie filling over the flour mixture. Do not mix them together.
Bake for 50-60 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with fresh whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream for the ultimate treat.

Notes

This cobbler is also delicious, prepared in a 10 or 11-inch cast iron skillet.
Keep an eye on the butter in the oven and remove it when it is melted.
For optimal flavor, use premium cherry pie filling. It is well worth the added expenditure.
If you have the time and the energy, make homemade cherry pie filling. It will be over-the-top delicious, and you can say the whole dish is made from scratch.
This dessert is delicious with homemade whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
Serve it warm or at room temperature. I have even enjoyed it cold.
