Ingredients
- ½ cup butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 ¾ cups white sugar, divided
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup milk
- 2 cups pitted sour cherries
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Steps
- Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Place butter in a 9×13-inch baking dish, and place in the oven to melt while the oven is preheating. Remove as soon as butter has melted, about 5 minutes.
- Stir together 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, and baking powder in a medium bowl. Mix in milk until well blended, then pour the batter into the pan over the melted butter. Do not stir.
- Rinse out the bowl from the batter, and dry. Place cherries into the bowl, and toss with remaining 3/4 cup sugar and 1 tablespoon flour. Distribute the cherry mixture evenly over the batter. Do not stir.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 50 to 60 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the cobber should come out clean.
