Expert Tips for Success
Cherry Options: Frozen cherries work well—no need to thaw, just extend baking by 5-10 minutes.
Butter Matters: Keep it cold for a flakier topping.
Prevent Over-Browning: If the top darkens too quickly, tent with foil.
Serving Idea: Best enjoyed warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Variations to Try
Mixed Berry Cobbler – Swap half the cherries with blueberries or raspberries.
Peach Cherry Cobbler – Add 1 cup sliced peaches for a summery twist.
Vegan Version – Use coconut oil instead of butter and almond milk.
Nutty Crunch – Fold ¼ cup chopped almonds or pecans into the topping.
Serving Suggestions

À la Mode: Top with vanilla ice cream for a classic pairing.
