Before going into the oven. I did not have enough cherry pie filling so I stretched it with some canned peaches. I also lacked cake mix so I ad libbed with a basic oatmeal cookie dough.
It is good but not great. A cobbler is only as good as the fruit.
The oatmeal cookie can carry a lot of fruit and tartness. Next time I will punch up the fruit with some lemon juice or rhubarb. I may even add some almond extract.
I will also cook it a little bit longer to brown the top.
It is still your recipe. I just bent the corners on it because of ingredient availability. It is certainly good enough to eat.
Well, there ya' go. You used my recipe, but changed everything, which is the nature of good recipes, ie, Making Them Your Own.
ReplyDeleteI never thought about using oatmeal. Great idea! How did it turn out?
