It's the most wonderful time of the year! And I've got the most wonderful table to share, especially if blue and white is your jam, like it is mine. I'm all about thinking outside the box and I love the idea of creating a blue and white Christmas table. It even coordinates with the blue and white themed tree in our foyer! My love affair with blue and white received an added dimension a few ... Read More about Blue and White Christmas Table

Easy Cherry Cobbler
Today I want to share one of our family’s favorite recipes! Oh, my goodness. I often wonder if I love to cook because I love to eat, or if I love to eat because I love to cook so much! Sort of a chicken-or-the-egg kind of thing.
Anyway. I discovered this variation of my much beloved peach cobbler recipe when I was thinking of a quick and easy dessert for the upcoming July 4th holiday. Of course, I make mine gluten-free, so that’s the recipe I will share. But it’s easy to convert back to standard flour. Just use 1-1/3 cup of self-rising and omit the baking powder, soda and salt.
- 1 stick butter
- 1-1/3 cup gluten-free flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- dash salt
- 1-1/3 cup sugar
- 1-1/3 cup milk/buttermilk ( I use 1/2 milk, 1/2 buttermilk)
- 1 can cherry pie filling
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter in 9x13-inch pan. Mix dry ingredients in mixing bowl and add milk with wire whisk. Pour into prepared pan.
- Then I spoon the cherry pie filling on top. (We've touched on the perfectionist thing before, but I like to make sure every serving is going to have roughly the same amount of cherries! ...oh dear, it's hopeless!) Bake for 40-45 minutes, until golden brown on top. Enjoy plain or a la mode!
- *OK. Here's my secret: I use the whisk to stir the butter into the flour and milk mixture a bit to incorporate before I add the cherries. I do this right in the pan. Just kind of disperses the butter amongst the entire dish.*
