Filling:
- Combine all filling ingredients together in a medium sized bowl, mix well and set aside.
Topping:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the butter, milk and sugar until combined. Whisk in the egg. Add the flour, baking powder and salt, and whisk batter until smooth and lump free.
- Fill dish/pan with cranberry mix and evenly pour the cobbler cake batter over the top.
- Bake for about 35-45 minutes, or until the cranberry juices are bubbling and the cobbler cake is golden and firm to the touch.
- Allow to cool for 15 minutes before serving with ice cream, frozen yoghurt, etc!
- Happy Thanksgiving!
