I used to be watching certainly one of my favourite Meals Community reveals, Scrumptious Miss Brown with Kardea Brown, when she made a terrific wanting Apple Berry Cobbler. I didn’t write down the recipe, as a result of I knew I might get it off of the foodnetwork.com web-site if I ever wished to make it.
A few of Brad’s associates had been coming to stick with us the evening earlier than all of them headed to northern Minnesota for his or her annual tenting/fishing/roughing it journey and I wished to make a dessert for his or her final house cooked meal earlier than heading to the woods.
I had apples within the fridge and berries within the freezer so it appeared like the proper time to make this nice sounding dessert.
Supper was on the range and within the sluggish cooker so whereas the blokes had been packing up the truck and getting ready for his or her journey, I turned on the oven to preheat and set to work placing this cobbler collectively. I figured it will bake whereas we ate and as soon as everybody’s supper had settled it will be achieved.
I whisked the dry components collectively and stirred within the half and half, mixing simply until it was mixed.
As a substitute of melting the butter on the range or within the microwave I simply put it within the baking dish and positioned the dish within the oven whereas it was preheating. When the butter had melted, I poured the batter excessive and sat the dish on a cooling rack whereas I put the fruit filling collectively.
After putting all the filling components in a medium dimension pan, I turned on the range, introduced the combination to a boil, then turned the temperature down a bit and let it prepare dinner for a few minutes. Once I watched Miss Brown put together this dish I observed that she didn’t prepare dinner the fruit till it diminished and thickened so I simply adopted her lead and did the identical.
I gently scooped the filling and liquid excessive of the batter and positioned the baking dish within the oven.
Whereas we had been consuming supper, I let the blokes know dessert was within the making, so they may wish to save room of their bellies. In regards to the time we had been achieved consuming supper the timer sounded and I pulled the cobbler out of the oven. It cooled a bit whereas we cleared the desk after which we had been all able to dig in.
Everybody served themselves and a few topped their portion off with Reddi Whip and/or ice cream.
One chew and I used to be bought. The dish jogged my memory of a whole lot of the fast cobbler recipe nearly everybody has of their recipe arsenal, however this one was simply higher. The cinnamon and nutmeg actually set this apple berry cobbler aside and it wasn’t overly candy both.
All the guys agreed that I nailed this recipe. One other one added to my self-made prepare dinner e book.
