Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Take a baking pan and melt the stick of butter or margarine in it. You can do this either on the stovetop or directly in the oven while it's preheating.

In a separate bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and milk. Mix them together until you have a smooth batter.

Once the butter has melted in the baking pan, carefully pour the batter over the melted butter. Avoid stirring the mixture.

Now, it's time to add the star of the show, the sweetened fruit. Choose your favorite fruit such as peaches, cherries, blackberries, or any other fruit you desire. Spread the fruit evenly over the batter in the pan.

Place the baking pan in the preheated oven and let it bake for approximately one hour. During this time, the batter will rise to the top, creating a soft and cake-like layer while absorbing the delicious flavor of the fruit.

Once the cobbler is golden brown and fragrant, remove it from the oven. Allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving.
