I like to serve this with vanilla ice cream. Use the cinnamon candies to your preference for the cinnamon flavor. I tend to use 3 tablespoons, but my daughter prefers 4.

How To Make cherry cinnamon cobbler

  • Step 1
    Drain the cherries, reserving the syrup. Set the cherries aside. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Step 2
    Combine the syrup, 1/2 cup sugar, water, candies, and corn starch in a medium saucepan; stir well. Cook over medium heat until the mixture is thickened, stirring frequently.
  • Step 3
    Stir in the reserved cherries.
  • Step 4
    Pour the cherry mixture into an 8-inch square, lightly greased baking dish; set aside.
  • Step 5
    Combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and 3 Tbsp brown sugar in a medium bowl; stir well. Cut in the shortening with a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in the pecans.
  • Step 6
    Combine the egg and milk in a small bowl. Sprinkle evenly over the flour mixture, stirring with a fork just until the dry ingredients are moistened.
  • Step 7
    Roll the pastry to a 14 x 12-inch rectangle; brush with melted butter. Combine the remaining 3 Tbsp brown sugar and cinnamon.
  • Step 8
    Sprinkle over the pastry.
  • Step 9
    Roll up jelly-roll style, starting at the short side.
  • Step 10
    Cut into 3/4 inch slices. Place the slices on top of the cherry mixture.
  • Step 11
    Bake at 400 degrees F for 25 to 30 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • Step 12
    Combine the powdered sugar and lemon juice. Stir well. Drizzle over the cobbler and serve warm.
