24 Awesome Cobblers, Crisps and Crumbles

COBBLER

What makes a cobbler so irresistible is the contrast: sweet-tart fruit against a buttery, slightly salty topping, in a texture that is part cake, part biscuit, part pie. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream melting into the juices, and you have got one of the coziest desserts around.

Cobblers are also wonderfully low-fuss. There is no fussy crust to roll out or crimp, just fruit in a dish and a simple topping spooned or dropped on before baking, which is a big part of why a cobbler tastes so much like home.

The oats add a nutty, toasty flavor that pairs beautifully with just about any fruit, apples, peaches, berries, or a mix of whatever is in season. Add a scoop of ice cream on top and let it melt into that crumbly topping, and you have got a dessert that is equal parts cozy and satisfying.
