In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and milk. Whisk until combined - it may still be a little lumpy.
Pour sweet batter over the butter in baking dish. Do not stir.
Pour cherry pie filling over the batter. Do not stir.
Bake 45 to 50 minutes, or until crust is golden brown. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or some whipped topping. Enjoy.
Notes
Gluten-free flour may also be used.
Comstock pie fillings are all GF. If you prefer another brand, be sure to read the ingredients. Alternatively, fresh cherries may be substituted which have been cooked down with simple syrup.
A 2.5 QT (9x13") baking dish is the smallest size baking pan you should ideally use for this recipe. Smaller pans are too full and the ingredients don't work together they way they should.
