This recipe works great with other cobbler fruit and is an excellent light dessert that isn’t too sweet! Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
I’ve made this recipe a few times now and must say that the addition of cinnamon both into the berry mixture and cobbler batter really makes this recipe pop. I add about a 1/2 teaspoon to each but also increase the amount of berries to 5 cups and orange juice to about 1/2 cup. Also, I read many reviews of this recipe is too sweet, but I find that with fruit recipes you really have to taste the fruit before you use it to know how much sugar is needed. I rather like the cakey cobbler this recipe produces as opposed to some with a denser topping. The best compliment this recipe can get from me is that even my very picky hubby requests it regularly. Thanks for a nice basic recipe.
