Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Be sure not to burn the butter!

Bake until the crust rises to the top and is golden brown, approximately 45 minutes (I was using the oven over at my in laws and with their oven in a total of 45 minutes the crust was perfectly browned).

Note: The crust will not cover the entire surface of the cobbler.

Set aside to cool on a wire rack for at least 25 minutes.

When you remove the cobbler from the oven, the top will be watery/liquidy in the center (again DO NOT stir it!)

and cooling the cobbler should thicken it in the time indicated.

As you can see in my photo above, the center isn't quite thickened yet.

This was about 15 minutes after the cobbler was removed to the counter to cool.

If desired, garnish the cobbler with a light sprinkling of raw sugar.
