Two Cobblers That are Lip-Smacking Good and Lightened Up!

 

Tis' the essence of summer...

 

Cobbler!

 

I love pie and I love cake, but cobbler puts me over the moon happy 🌝.  I will gladly crank up the oven for it, regardless of the high temperatures of summer...

 

Peaches!

Heavenly juicy peaches were ripe and so were the sweet blackberries ~ this was the perfect time to make 2 cobblers, to make us all happy!

Blackberries!

 

 

These cobblers are lightened up with a sugar replacement - substitute regular sugar in the same amount, if you like. 

 

The cobbler is filled with just the right amount of sweetness using Swerve, the dessert is not overly sweet, it tastes great; I would be hard-pressed to tell the difference from the real thing!

It couldn't be easier to make ~ whatever fruit you want, and spices too; maybe nutmeg, cloves, vanilla, allspice, or even pepper, or not.  Try a splash of bourbon or blackberry brandy!

 

 

Voila!    Baked!

 

And you can really bake it in whatever dish or pan you have, even a large skillet ~ just so it can hold about 8 cups.

 

 

Ummm, mmm!

 

 

Cobbler is a simple, easy, timeless dessert that's lip-smacking good ~ a dessert that takes already delicious summer fruit to a whole new level! 

 

 

Tastes so good!

Bet you’ll be doing a happy dance after the first bite!  You know how little kids and dogs wiggle and dance around with the anticipation of eating something scrumptious ~ they're expressing how much they love the taste of something tasty and delicious.

So, bet you'll be doing a happy dance also, just like Bill and Bubba did!
