An easy pear cobbler recipe with butter and cake-like batter, along with fresh pears.

Ingredients:

  • 2 to 2 1/2 cups sliced fresh pears
  • 2 cups sugar, divided
  • 4 ounces butter
  • 3/4 cup flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 egg

Preparation:

Mix pears with 1 cup sugar and let stand. Put butter in 2-quart casserole and place in 325° oven until melted. Combine all dry ingredients, including the remaining 1 cup of sugar. Mix well. Whisk together the milk and egg; slowly combine with dry ingredients to make a batter. Pour over melted butter. Do not stir. Spoon pears over the batter. Do not stir. Bake at 325° for 50 to 60 minutes, or until nicely browned and pears are tender.
Serve hot or cold with ice cream or whipped cream.

"I made this recipe and think there was a mistake with the quantity of the sugar. 1 Cup would have been more than enough. I am sure then it would have been super best wishes joy"
