Ingredients
Fruit
- 4.5 Plums medium-sized, apricots, or peaches, pears, semi-tart; can be substituted with cherries
Topping
- 3 Tbsp Sugar
- 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 1 Tbsp Butter cold, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 3 Tbsp Cashews coarsely ground; can be substituted with other nuts or omitted
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 Egg lightly beaten; substitute with 1 heaping tbsp plain yogurt if egg-free
- 1/4 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/4 cup Milk or less, as needed
- 1/2 tsp Cinnamon ground
For Plums
- 1 Tbsp Sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease a quarter-plate-sized baking dish.
- Pit and halve the plums. Arrange them cut-side down in the prepared baking dish.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sugar over the plums. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine the remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar, all-purpose flour, coarsely ground cashews, and cold, cubed butter.
- Using your fingertips or a pastry blender, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. This creates a flaky cobbler topping.
- Add the lightly beaten egg, cinnamon, and vanilla extract to the crumble mixture. Gently fold in until just combined.
- Gradually add milk, a little at a time, until the mixture reaches a thick pouring consistency.
- Pour the topping evenly over the sugared plums in the baking dish.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the plums are tender and bubbly.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- Traditionally, cobbler doesn't include nuts.
- Don't forget the cinnamon—it's essential for the best flavor.
- For extra flavor, toss the plums with a splash of orange liqueur or some orange zest.
- For crunchy cashews, sprinkle them on top halfway through baking.
- For a rustic cobbler, use a mix of white and whole wheat flour.
Expert Tips
- Adjust the sweetness of the cobbler by adding more or less sugar to the plum filling, depending on the sweetness of the plums themselves.
- If you don't have fresh plums, you can use frozen (thawed and drained) or even high-quality canned plums in a pinch.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a classic dessert experience.
Storage Instructions
- Leftover cobbler can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Enjoy cold or gently reheat in the oven or microwave.
