Notes

  • Extra topping. I suggest doubling the cobbler topping if you really like extra crumble topping. 
  • Don't skip the arrowroot or cornstarch in the berry base! It's listed as optional, but trust me — it keeps the filling from getting too runny and gives you that thick, jammy texture you're looking for. Totally worth it.
  • Use fresh or frozen fruit only — not canned. Canned fruit has added sugars and extra liquid that will throw off the whole texture of the cobbler. No need to thaw frozen fruit before adding it in!
  • Let it cool for a full 15 minutes before serving. I know it smells incredible right out of the oven, but the inside continues to thicken as it cools. Cut in too soon and it'll be runny — let it sit and you'll get that perfect gooey, scoopable texture.
