How To Make Cherry Cobbler
Step 1 – Prep
Preheat oven to 375° and spray a 3 quart baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
Step 2 – Making the Cherry Filling
If you are using frozen cherries, remove 6 cups, give a quick rinse with cold water, and add them to a large mixing bowl to thaw or if using fresh cherries, rinse, remove pits and place in a large bowl. Once cherries have almost thawed, drain any excess water. Next, add both sugars, lemon juice and cornstarch. Stir and let sit for 5 minutes, then stir again and pour into the prepared baking dish.
Step 3 – Making the Cobbler Topping
In a medium bowl, whisk flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking powder and salt together, then add butter. Mix until crumbly and add boiling water. Stir until well combined. Next, just spoon the topping onto the cherry filling and pop in the oven.
