Step 5: Serve
- Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool for 10–15 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to thicken slightly.
- Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or yogurt for added indulgence.
Tips for Success
- Fruit Prep : For frozen fruit, do not thaw before using—it helps prevent excess moisture in the cobbler.
- Topping Consistency : The topping should resemble pancake batter. If it feels too thick, add more milk; if too thin, add a bit more flour.
- Make Ahead : Prepare the fruit filling ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to assemble and bake.
