Ingredients
Scale
Cobbler Topping:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- zest of 1 lemon
Lemon Filling:
- 1 can (21 oz) lemon pie filling
- optional powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Prepare cobbler topping: Pour melted butter into a 9×9-inch baking dish. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, milk, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until smooth. Pour batter over melted butter in the baking dish without stirring.
- Add lemon filling: Spoon lemon pie filling evenly over the batter without stirring. The layers will shift as it bakes to create a ‘magic’ cobbler effect.
- Bake: Bake for 45–50 minutes until the top is golden and set.
- Serve: Allow to cool slightly before serving. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
Notes
- Best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
- You can use homemade lemon curd or filling for a more intense citrus flavor.
