How to Make Creeping Crust Cobbler

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of butter in a 10-inch baking dish and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
  3. Gradually add 1 cup milk to the dry ingredients, gently stirring by hand until just combined. Do not overmix!
  4. Pour the batter evenly over the melted butter in the prepared baking dish.
  5. Add 4-6 cups of your favorite fruit (fresh or frozen) evenly over the dough. Feel free to adjust the amount of fruit to your liking.
  6. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the fruit is bubbly. Baking time may vary depending on your oven and the type of fruit used.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or cold, with a scoop of your favorite ice cream!
