Tips:
- To make the perfect cobbler crust, use a combination of all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and butter. Cut the butter into small pieces and work it into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Then, add milk and stir until the dough just comes together.
- Use fresh, ripe cherries for the best flavor. If you're using frozen cherries, thaw them completely before using.
- If you don't have a cherry pitter, you can use a paring knife to remove the pits.
- To prevent the cobbler from boiling over, place a baking sheet on the oven rack below the cobbler.
- Serve the cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
