Follow these easy steps to achieve a bubbling, golden cobbler just like the one in your photo!

Step 1: Prep & Preheat 

1. Preheat your oven to $375^{\circ}\text{F}$ ($190^{\circ}\text{C}$).

2. Melt the $1/2$ cup of butter and pour it directly into your $9 \times 13$ inch baking dish (or divide it between two $8 \times 8$ dishes). Do not spread it! Simply let it coat the bottom. 

Step 2: Mix the Fruit Filling 

1. In a large bowl, combine the $6$ cups of fruit, $1/2$ cup of sugar, $2$ tablespoons of flour, $1$ teaspoon of lemon juice, and $1/2$ teaspoon of cinnamon.

2. Toss everything gently until the fruit is evenly coated with the sugar and flour mixture. This prevents the sauce from being too watery.

3. Set aside for about $5-10$ minutes while you prepare the topping. This resting time helps the fruit release some of its natural juices.
