Ingredients for Cherry Cobbler

Contents show

Cherries: Use either fresh or frozen cherries in this recipe. Canned cherries work too, be sure to drain them. I use this style of cherry pitter since you can do several cherries at once (you can also remove pits without a cherry pitter).

Cobbler Topping: This cherry cobbler is cake-like and easy to make with simple ingredients you likely have on hand. Flour, sugar, milk, and butter. You can add a little bit of vanilla extract or almond extract if you’d like.
