Can I make this cobbler ahead of time?

Yes! Prepare it the day before and store in the fridge. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave before serving for the best texture.

Can I use bottled lemon juice instead of fresh?

Fresh lemon juice provides brighter flavor and a better texture. Bottled juice can be used in a pinch but may result in a slightly flatter taste.

How do I make it dairy-free?

Replace milk with almond, oat, or soy milk and use a plant-based butter. This keeps the cobbler creamy and light without dairy.

Can I add other fruits?

Absolutely! Blueberries, raspberries, or even diced peaches can be folded into the batter for a fruity variation.

Why did my cobbler not separate into layers?

This usually happens if the egg whites were not beaten properly or folded too aggressively. Always fold gently to maintain the airiness.
