Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 21-oz cans cherry pie filling
- 15.25 ounce box yellow cake mix
- ½ cup unsalted butter (melted)
- ¼ tsp almond extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spread cherry pie filling evenly in the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a mixing bowl, combine dry cake mix, melted butter, and almond extract. Stir until crumbly and evenly moistened.
- Drop or sprinkle this mixture evenly over the cherries.
- Bake 35–40 minutes, until the topping is golden brown.

Notes
- You can assemble the cobbler ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to bake. Bake just before serving for best results.
- Although you can technically skip the almond extract, it really enhances the cherry flavor, so consider adding at least a small amount if you can. It's one of those ingredients where a little bit goes a long way!
- To make gluten-free, substitute your favorite gluten-free yellow cake mix.
- Leftovers can be stored, tightly covered, at room temperature for 1-2 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 3-5 days.
