🍋 Magic Lemon Cobbler

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat & Prep

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place the stick of butter in a 9×9-inch baking dish and put it in the oven to melt.
Remove once fully melted.

2. Make the Batter

In a medium bowl, whisk together:

• flour

• sugar

• baking powder

Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until you get a smooth, pourable batter.

3. Pour (But Don’t Stir!)

Pour the batter directly over the melted butter in your baking dish.
Do not mix them together — the magic layering happens because they stay separate.

4. Add the Lemon

Drop spoonfuls of the lemon pie filling on top of the batter.
Don't stir — the lemon will sink and rise during baking, creating that cobbler texture.

5. Bake

Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until:

• the top is golden and lightly crisp

• the center is bubbly and set

6. Cool & Serve

Let it cool for 10–15 minutes so the layers finish setting.
Serve warm with:

• a scoop of vanilla ice cream

• a dollop of whipped cream

• or a sprinkle of powdered sugar

💡 Tips for the Best Lemon Cobbler

• Use fresh lemon zest for a brighter, more natural citrus flavor.

• Want it thicker? Add ½ cup more pie filling.

• Prefer extra buttery flavor? Add 2 extra tablespoons of butter to the pan.

• This cobbler is also delicious chilled — it becomes more pudding-like.
