Description
A bright and buttery lemon cobbler featuring a tangy lemon pie filling baked beneath a soft, golden cobbler topping. This easy dessert comes together quickly and delivers a perfect balance of sweet and citrus flavor.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 (21-ounce) can lemon pie filling
- Zest of 1 lemon (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Place the butter in a 9×9-inch baking dish and melt in the oven. Remove once melted.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Add milk and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and whisk until smooth.
- Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir.
- Spoon the lemon pie filling evenly over the batter without mixing.
- Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and set.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm.
Notes
- Do not stir the layers; the batter will rise around the lemon filling as it bakes.
- Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for extra richness.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat individual portions in the microwave before serving.
