- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar Additional 1 cup for the lemon filling.
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter Melted.
- 2 cups fresh lemon juice About 4-6 lemons.
- 1 lemon zest
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg Optional.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease the bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until evenly mixed.
Add the milk and melted butter to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Do not spread it out; simply pour it in as it will spread while baking.
In a separate bowl, mix the lemon juice, lemon zest, and additional granulated sugar (1 cup). Pour this mixture over the batter in the baking dish without stirring.
Sprinkle the ground nutmeg on top if using. This adds a lovely aromatic touch.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cobbler is set.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. The lemon filling will settle at the bottom.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra treat.
The cobbler can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
For a twist, you can experiment by adding blueberries or raspberries to the lemon batter mixture.
