   • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
   • Place the margarine in a 9×13 inch baking pan and melt it. You can do this by placing the pan with margarine in the microwave and heating until melted, or melt it on the stovetop.

2. Mix the Batter:

   • While the margarine is melting, in a mixing bowl, combine the milk, sugar, baking powder, flour, and salt. Stir until the batter is smooth and well-combined.

3. Assemble the Cobbler:

   • Once the margarine is melted, pour the batter evenly over the melted margarine in the baking pan.

4. Add the Fruit:

   • Spread the chopped fruit (or fruit filling) over the batter mixture in the pan. You can adjust the sweetness of the fruit to your taste preferences. Mix lightly if necessary to distribute the fruit evenly.

5. Bake:

   • Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake at 400°F (200°C) for about 30 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden brown and cooked through. The exact baking time may vary slightly depending on your oven and the type of fruit used.

6. Serve:

   • Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm, ideally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.

7. Variations:

   • You can customize this cobbler by using different types of fruit. Peaches and blackberries are particularly recommended, but feel free to experiment with your favorite fruits or whatever you have on hand. Adjust the sugar in the batter or fruit filling based on the sweetness of the fruit used.

Tips for Success

• Ensure the margarine is melted thoroughly before adding the batter to achieve a consistent texture throughout the cobbler.
• Don’t overmix the batter once you’ve poured it into the pan with the melted margarine. A few gentle swirls to distribute the batter evenly is all that’s needed.
• Check the cobbler towards the end of the baking time to prevent over-browning. If it’s browning too quickly, you can cover it loosely with aluminum foil.
