Pear Cobbler
Pears are in season, so I’ve been eating a ton of them. What better way to enjoy them for dessert than in a “somewhat” healthy cobbler?
This is very similar to my peach cobbler recipe. But, there are some differences. This recipe calls for 5-6 pears. If you don’t like pear skin, bring a couple quarts of water to a boil. Blanch the pears for a couple minutes, then submerge them in ice water to easily peel off the skin. Next, slice them into 1/4 inch slivers. Preheat oven to 350.
Ingredients for Cobbler Topping:
- 1/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 1/4 cup oat bran
- 1 tsp baking powder
- pinch of sea salt
- 1/2 TB cinamon
- tiny pinch nutmeg
- 1 egg
- 1 TB walnut oil
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 4 TB plain rice milk (I’m sure you could use real milk, but I never have it in the fridge, so I used homemade rice milk)
Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl. Mix the wet ingredients in another bowl. Mix the wet into the dry, pour over the pears, and bake for 30 minutes. Serve with maple whip cream and/or vanilla ice cream. Try to enjoy in moderation.
