Spiced Pineapple Cobbler

Ingredients

Pineapple chunks

4 cups, fresh or canned (drained)

Brown sugar

1/2 cup

All-purpose flour

1 cup

Granulated sugar

1/4 cup

Baking powder

2 teaspoons

Cinnamon

1 teaspoon

Salt

1/4 teaspoon

Unsalted butter

1/2 cup, cold and cubed

Milk

1/2 cup

Vanilla extract

1 teaspoon

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the pineapple chunks and brown sugar. Toss gently to ensure the pineapple is evenly coated.
3. Transfer the pineapple mixture to a greased 9x9 inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
5. Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
6. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
7. Drop spoonfuls of the dough over the pineapple mixture in the baking dish, covering as much of the pineapple as possible.
8. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the pineapple is bubbling around the edges.
9. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
