Ingredients

  • 20 ounce Can Cherry Pie Filling
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • pinch salt
  • 6 tbsp butter melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Fill the inner pot of your instant pot with 1 cup of water. Place the trivet inside. 
  • Grease a cake pan (that fits inside your instant pot) with cooking spray.
  • Pour the cherry pie filling into the cake pan.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the sugar, flour, and salt. 
  • Slowly drizzle in the melted butter and vanilla extract.
  • Mix together with a fork until the mixture is wet. 
  • With clean hands, grab clumps of the cobbler dough and squeeze into a ball. Then flatten into a round. 
  • Place on top of the cherry pie filling. Continue making rounds with the cobbler dough and arrange slightly overlapped on top of the cherry pie filling. 
  • Place a paper towel on top of the cake pan and cover that with a piece of aluminum foil. Crimp the edges to prevent water from getting into the cherry cobbler. 
  • Create a foil sling with a long piece of aluminum foil folded into thirds. 
  • Use it to slowly lover the instant pot cherry cobbler into the instant pot. 
  • Gently fold the ends of the foil sling over top of the covered cake pan. 
  • Close the lid and set to "sealing".
  • Cook on high pressure for 30 minutes. 
  • Quick Pressure Release (QPR).
  • If a browned cobbler is desired, place the uncovered cake pan under your oven's broiler for 2-3 minutes. 
  • Let cool before serving.
