As a side note, I have fairly bland taste in food-- many foods taste much more bitter or sweet to me than to my housemates so I tend to err on the side of less-is-more with both salt and sugar. I encourage you to try the recipe as is, and then adjust it to your own taste.
Assorted Cobbler
Ingredients for base:
- 4 c. fruit, or enough to layer 1 to 1 ½ inches in the bottom of the pan
- For berries add:
- 2 Tbsp. cornstarch
- 1 ¼ c. water
- zero to ¼ c sugar
- For rhubarb / apples add:
- 2 ½ Tbsp cornstarch
- ⅔ c. water
- ⅔ c. sugar
- Let fruit mixture sit for 15 minutes to soak
- Bake fruit mixture for 20 minutes at 200C/ 400F
- While the fruit is soaking and baking mix a batch of the Universal Biscuits
- Add drop biscuits to the top and bake for and additional 15-20 minutes or until golden brown
- Pull from oven and let set for 15-20 minutes or until cool enough to eat
Serve with vanilla ice cream or with a little cinnamon sugar sprinkled on top. This can be eaten warm or cool and holds up well when stored in the fridge for a few days.
