- If you don't have a 9x13 inch baking dish, you can use two smaller dishes, such as two 8x8 inch dishes.
- Be sure to coat the fruit with sugar and cornstarch before adding it to the baking dish. This will help to thicken the filling and prevent it from being too runny.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cobbler tough.
