Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees (F). Mix all ingredients in a very large skillet or in a 13x9 inch glass baking dish. Bake for 12 minutes.
While the fruit bakes, prepare topping:
  1. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in large bowl; mix well. Using fingertips, rub in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add egg and milk; stir until combined
  2. Remove fruit from oven. Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees (F).
  3. Spoon batter over hot filling in 12 mounds (I used a large ice cream scoop for this) spacing evenly. Sprinkle with granulated sugar. Bake until juices thicken and topping is golden; about 30 minutes. Cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
  4. Serve warm with freshly whipped cream and/or vanilla ice cream.
For the maple whipped cream:
  1. Beat cream in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment OR with a handheld mixer until it forms stiff peaks. Add maple syrup and beat for 10 seconds. Dollop on warm cobbler.
