What You'll Need for this Cherry Cobbler Recipe:

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound of fresh or frozen cherries
  • 4-6 Nectarines
  • Maple Syrup
  • Lemon Juice
  • Flour
  • Baking Powder
  • Ground Cinnamon
  • Sugar
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Milk
  • Unsalted Butter
  • Salt (optional)

Equipment:

  • 9 x 13" Baking Dish
  • Mixing Bowls
Cherry cobbler batter was poured on top of nectarines and cherries.

How to Make It:

This nectarine cobbler recipe is done in a few easy steps! First, the fruits will be combined with lemon juice, maple syrup, and ground cinnamon in a medium mixing bowl and transferred to the baking dish to set aside.

Next, the remaining ingredients are whisked together in a large mixing bowl and poured over the fruit and the empty spaces in the dish. You can also drop the batter atop the fruit for an uneven rustic layer.

The cherry cobbler is then ready for baking! Bake for 40-50 minutes or until the top starts to brown. Serve it with your favorite ice cream or yogurt!

Variations:

To make this a vegan cobbler, substitute vegan butter and non-dairy milk for the butter and milk used in the batter.

No cherries? No problem! Use other delicious stone fruits, such as peaches, nectarines, or more plums! Other cobbler ideas: apples, blueberries, and strawberries!

Use leftover fruits in similar desserts, such as a crisp or crumble! Curious about the difference between all of these fruit desserts? The Kitchn has an excellent article discussing all of the forms!

How to make it a Gluten-Free Cobbler:

To make this a gluten-free cobbler, use a 1:1 ratio for substituting gluten-free flour for the all-purpose flour. I like the one called Measure for Measure by King Arthur.

Other ingredients to keep an eye on are vanilla extract and baking powder. Pure vanilla extract is gluten-free and baking powder is generally gluten-free. Double-check the labeling for baking powder which can sometimes have hidden ingredients.

How to Store it:

Store leftover cherry cobbler in an airtight container for up to 4 days in the refrigerator or 3 months in the freezer. Enjoy!

Notes

  1. Layer the pan with the melted butter or melt the butter in the 9 x 13 dish while the oven is preheating.
  2. To make this a gluten-free cobbler, use gluten-free flour for the all-purpose or wheat flour. Make sure the baking powder and vanilla extract are also certified gluten-free if gluten-sensitive due to the potential for gluten contamination where it is processed.
