Apple, blackberry & pecan cobbler
800g can sliced apples
2 cups frozen blackberries
¾ cup caster sugar
¼ cup breadcrumbs
2 cups self-raising flour
1 tsp ground ginger
finely grated zest of 2 oranges
1 cup pecans, chopped
125g unsalted butter, diced
1 cup buttermilk
¼ cup brown sugar
vanilla custard, to serve
1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Toss the apples, blackberries, ½ cup caster sugar and breadcrumbs in a large bowl, then arrange in the bottom of a Thermostone® 2L Round Pie Dish.
2. Mix the flour, pecans and ginger in a bowl with the remaining caster sugar, then add the butter and rub with fingertips to combine. Pour in the buttermilk, then stir to form a dough. Roll into 12 balls, flatten, then arrange on top. Scatter with brown sugar, then bake for 40-45 minutes, until browned and crisp.
Tip: Apply Thermostone® lid to store leftovers for later. Pop open lid vent when microwave reheating.
