1-Getting ready to bake this easy cherry cobbler recipe is straightforward and fun. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure even baking. This homemade sweet cherry cobbler comes together in about 55 minutes, making it ideal for a quick dessert.

2-First, in a saucepan, mix the sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Stir in the cherries and cook briefly until the mixture thickens slightly, which helps lock in those fresh flavors.

3-Next, place the butter in a 9×13-inch baking dish and melt it in the preheated oven. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt, then stir in the milk until just mixed. Pour this batter over the melted butter in the dish.

4-Now, spoon the cherry mixture evenly over the batter and sprinkle with ground cinnamon. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until it’s golden brown and bubbly. Let it cool a bit before serving warm, perhaps with vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
