This egg free recipe is such an easy and delicious dessert.
I actually don’t know why a cobbler is called a cobbler nor do I know why it’s also know as a betty or a buckle depending on where you are in the world. I do however, know that this dessert is super simple and super delicious. With just butter and batter, you can’t really go wrong, can you?!
I’ve actually been meaning to post this recipe for months but this pudding never lasts long enough for me to take a picture! It’s the perfect standby dessert because you don’t have to wait for butter to soften, eggs to get to room temperature and you’ll find almost all of the ingredients in the pantry! Too easy!
In the past, I’ve used both fresh and tinned peaches although almost any fruit will do. Apples and pears also work well and you can pimp your cobbler up with your favourite berries. We like to serve this with ice cream or custard and sometimes if we’re being very indecisive, both!
What are your favourite fruits? Are you on Team Custard or Team Ice Cream? Or both?!
Ingredients
125g (1/2 cup) butter, chopped
100g (3/4 cup) caster sugar

How to
- Preheat oven to 190C/170 C fan-forced
