Jennifer Garner and her mom showed off their baking skills on national television.

Jennifer expressed excitement over her parent, 86, making her morning show debut. "It’s the best to be here with my mom!" the Alias alum said. "It’s just the sweetest. I’m so proud of her and so happy that we’re here together."

Before taking to the stove, Hoda Kotb questioned Pat about whether or not she taught her daughter "everything she knows about cooking."

"Oh goodness no! She’s a much better cook than I am," the matriarch admitted to the news anchor, 59.

Jennifer Garner and Pat Garner made a blueberry cobbler together.

"Did you love cooking? Or did you just have to do it? Savannah Guthrie asked Pat, who often appears on Jennifer's Instagram.

"I thought I loved it but I don’t cook anymore, and I love that too," the West Virginia native revealed.

When the duo got started, Pat opened up about why the recipe for the sweet treat was so special to her and their family. "It’s so easy and it is always eaten. I never have to take any of it home. I recently had a potluck on my back deck, and I looked over and people were getting their cobbler first," she noted.

Jennifer Garner gushed over growing up with Pat Garner as her mom.

However, now that she and her famous kiddo gave insight into how to make the dish, Pat feared she may be letting go of her secrets. "I made it three times [last week]. Because I take it to every potluck. Now they’re going to see the recipe, and what else am I going to bring to the potluck?" she jokingly asked.

Earlier in the episode, Jennifer gushed over her relationship with her mom and dad, the late Bill Garner, growing up. "We all kind of just fell in line," the mother-of-three said. "I don't know what Mom and Dad did. We respected them so much. And we were a little a little bit scared of Dad. I can't say we were scared of you, Mom."

"No, I don't think you were," Pat told Jennifer. "Bill was very proud that the boyfriends were all a little bit afraid of him."

Jennifer Garner has three children.

"We supported our children whatever they wanted to do, and we never fussed at Jennifer or anything," Pat noted. "But Bill told the people he worked with, 'Well, now I'll have to support her all of her life.'"

"You told me to switch my major," Jennifer quipped. "You said, 'Just study what you love. You'll figure it out if you want to go back to school later, but you're spending all your time in the theater. Just study that.'"
