Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Low-fat milk
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar (for topping)
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray an 8x8-inch baking dish or a similar-sized casserole dish with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mixed berries, 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Gently toss until the berries are evenly coated. Pour the berry mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Add the low-fat milk, applesauce, and vanilla extract. Stir until the batter is smooth but do not overmix.
Pour the batter evenly over the berry mixture in the baking dish, using a spatula to spread it gently if necessary. Make sure most of the berries are covered but leave some exposed for a natural, rustic look.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the berry mixture is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the cobbler from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally with a dollop of light whipped cream or a scoop of low-fat vanilla yogurt for added creaminess.
