This is a gluten-free version of a great-tasting dish. And, trust me, you will not miss the gluten. To finish this dish off, it must be served warm with a nice scoop of vanilla ice cream, melting on the top. But, more on that later. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

How To Make sweet essentials: blueberry and apple cobbler

    Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).

    THE FILLING
  • 4
    Place a rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 375f (190c).
  • 5
    Add the diced apples to a small bowl, and then add 2 teaspoons of the freshly squeezed lemon juice.
  • 6
    Add the blueberries.

  • 8
    Place ingredients in a baking, or pie dish.

    THE TOPPING
  • 10
    Chef’s Note: This topping produces a very dry crumbly topping that lovingly absorbs the ice cream, as melts over the cobbler. What I am saying is that the ice cream is an essential element of this recipe. If you are not using ice cream on the top, then I suggest you add additional liquid (milk, cream, etc.) to the topping ingredients before mixing and adding to the cobbler. A couple of tablespoons should do nicely.

    Place into the preheated oven, and bake until the topping is a golden brown, and the fruit is bubbling, about 18 – 20 minutes.
