- 1/2 cup 1 stick unsalted butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon extract
- 1 21 oz can lemon pie filling
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Melt the butter by placing it in a 9x9-inch baking dish and heating it in the oven for 3-4 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Prepare the batter by whisking together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a mixing bowl.
Add wet ingredients by stirring in the buttermilk, vanilla extract, and lemon extract until just combined.
Assemble the cobbler by pouring the batter over the melted butter in the baking dish. Do not stir.
Add the lemon filling by spooning dollops evenly over the top.
Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Cool & serve by letting the cobbler cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
Serving suggestion: Pairs wonderfully with vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
