Description

A delightful dessert that combines bright lemon filling with a soft, cake-like topping. Perfect for citrus lovers!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (21 oz) lemon pie filling or lemon curd
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp lemon extract
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup buttermilk

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or a similar-sized pan to prevent sticking.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  3. Add the buttermilk, melted butter, lemon extract, and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth and no lumps remain.
  4. Pour the lemon pie filling or lemon curd evenly across the bottom of the prepared dish.
  5. Carefully spoon the cobbler batter over the lemon layer, spreading it as evenly as possible. Don’t worry if the layers mix slightly; they’ll bake into a magical blend!
  6. Bake for 40–45 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the cobbler topping comes out clean. Allow it to cool for 10 minutes to set.
  7. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat!

Notes

Consider zesting the lemons for enhanced flavor. You can also experiment with different fruit fillings!
