2 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup butter, cold and cubed
½ cup milk
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the PotatoesPreheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish.

While the potatoes are baking, prepare the dough.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add cold butter cubes and cut into the flour mixture using a pastry blender, two forks, or your hands until the mixture forms a crumbly texture.
Pour in milk and stir gently with a wooden spoon.
Add one egg at a time, mixing after each addition until fully incorporated.
Stir in shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan until combined.
Step 3: Assemble & Bake
Remove the partially baked potatoes from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes.
Drop spoonfuls of the cobbler dough over the potatoes, covering most of the surface.
Return the dish to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the cobbler topping is golden brown and the potatoes are tender.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
