FRUIT COBBLER

My son took first place in a baking contest with this one. Serve warm or cold plain, with ice cream or whipped cream. When I use apples, a sprinkle of cinnamon or apple pie spice makes a nice touch. In place of peaches, try using apples or plums.

SPARE FRUIT COBBLER



Spare Fruit Cobbler image

When the fruit in your house turns too overripe to enjoy on its own, this recipe will take that forgotten fruit and turn it into a masterpiece dessert. Forget cake, pudding, or cookie, it's all 3 combined if cooked properly! Sticking to one fruit really makes it a star in this dish. I've recently played with raisins as a main fruit, and 'very berry' with a combination of raspberries, boysenberries, blackberries, and strawberries. Serve a la mode. Delectable!

Time 45m

Yield 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup sugar, adjust to your taste
2 tablespoons flour
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup margarine, melted
5 slices white bread, crusts removed and cut into strips
3 cups fruit, approx, SEE NOTE
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon (optional) or 1 1/2 teaspoons cardamom (optional)

Steps:

  • Mix first 4 ingredients together and set aside.
  • Place drained fruit in a buttered 8x8 pan and top with bread strips.
  • Pour sugar mixture over bread and fruit and sprinkle with cinnamon if desired.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Great topped with ice cream or whipped cream on top.
  • Note: I dont usually measure the fruit, I just fill the bottom of the pan. Frozen fruit that has been partially defrosted works great as does soft fresh fruit- harder fruits such as apples or pears should be precooked until softened for best results. Drained canned fruit works great for this too. One large can (29 oz) is a perfect amount.
