Week 7: Fruit Cobbler

   
Filling:                         
30 ou frozen fruit
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup baking mix

Topping:                    
2 1/4 cup baking mix
1/2 cup sugar
4 Tbs melted butter
1/2 cup milk
2 tea cinnamon

Spray crock pot with non-stick cooking spray.  Mix ingredients for filling and place in pot.  Mix together baking mix, 1/4 cup sugar, butter and milk.  Drop by rounded spoonfuls on top of filling.  Sprinkle with remaining sugar and cinnamon.  Cook on HIGH about 3-3 1/2 hrs, or until toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean.  Serve warm topped with vanilla ice cream. (I recommend Graeter's!)

Thanks to Rebekah for recommending this recipe from Paula Deen's website.  The recipe calls for berries, but I used peaches- if I'm having cobbler, I want peach!!  Make sure you spray the pot- I accidentally left this step out and was scrubbing for awhile.  By "baking mix", they mean something like Bisquick. You can start to tell when the cobbler is done baking because the fruit will bubble up from underneath.  Now those of you who know Graeter's Ice Cream, you know why I chose this.  If you don't know Graeter's, first, I'm sorry.  And second, GO GET SOME!!!  If you are in Colorado, King Soopers is now carrying quite a few of the flavors, but if you are lucky enough to be in Cincinnati, I recommend driving immediately to the nearest Graeter's and getting some fresh (plus, a scoop to enjoy on the ride home, plus some of those pretty little cookies with the dollop of frosting on top).

  1. This is good-I can attest to that! I do love peaches, but I might also try a mix of blueberries, strawberries and raspberries, so it will be sweet and tangy, too. And thanks for the Graeters-that stuff is wonderful...maybe toooo wonderful!

  2. Made this last night with the berries and it was wonderful! Topped again with vanilla ice cream. Used blueberries, strawberries and blackberries this time.
