Ingredients
Instructions
- Put the fruit in a baking dish. If using fresh fruit, sprinkle with 1 cup of sugar.
- Cut the butter into small pieces and place over the fruit.
- In a mixing bowl, combine milk, sugar, flour, and vanilla, then pour the mixture over the fruit.
- Bake at 350°F for 35 to 40 minutes until the top is golden brown.
Tips & Substitutions
For a twist, try using a mix of berries or peaches for a delightful flavor combination. If you're out of milk, almond or oat milk can work well as a substitute. You can also reduce the sugar if you're using sweetened canned fruit. Remember to adjust baking time based on the fruit's juiciness; it may vary slightly.
Serving Suggestions
Serve warm for the best experience, possibly alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for added indulgence. It pairs beautifully with a slice of No-Fat Cream Cheese Frosting on the side for a creamy contrast. This cobbler makes a comforting dessert after a hearty meal or a delightful addition to brunch.
Storage & Reheating
Leftover cobbler can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place individual portions in the microwave for about 30 seconds or warm the entire dish in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes until heated through. This will help maintain its texture.
