Cobbler for Calah

My gorgeous friend Calah from Barefoot and Pregnant asked for an easy suggestion for dessert, and I happen to have one. Here’s my great-grandmother’s recipe (or receipt as it says on the hand written note) for Deep-Dish Pie (what most of us would call cobbler.)

Crazy easy and super good. Make it with whatever flavor fruit strikes your fancy.

Deep Dish Pie

2 cans pie filling any flavor
3/4 stick butter (she wrote oleo, which is margarine, butter is better)
1 cup sugar
1 cup flour
1 cup milk
2 tsp baking powder
t tsp vanilla

Grease casserole dish. Mix all ingredients but butter and filling together.  Put in pan.  Spoon pie filling on top, and slice butter on top of it all.  Bake at 350 for about an hour.

Yes, it is that easy.  It looks weird, but the crust rises up through and around the fruit to make a lovely golden brown cake-y top.  Give it a try and let me know how it goes. Serve it with vanilla ice cream and you can’t go wrong.
