Lemon Cobbler
This magic Lemon Cobbler is tart and sweet with a bright lemon filling and sugary golden brown crust.
Equipment
- 8 ½ x 11 baking dish or deep dish pie plate
Ingredients
- 1 stick unsalted butter cut into cubes

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F.
- Place diced butter into an 8 ½ x 11 baking dish or deep dish pie plate.

Notes
If you don't have self-rising flour, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder and ¼ teaspoon of salt. Be sure to let the butter melt fully before adding in other ingredients. Stir the batter too much. A few lumps are ok. Over mixing the batter makes it tough and dense. Don't stir the batter. You will want to but it will mix when it bakes. No wonder it's often called 'Magic Lemon Cobbler.' Watch the cobbler toward the end of the cooking time. All ovens cook differently! Allow the cobbler to cool a few minutes after you take it out of the oven. This will allow the filling to set up a little and make serving easier.
