I just have to write about what I made last night! It takes my "baking for the non-baker" to a new level of easy but more importantly healthy AND delicious!! I've been saying, I could easily gain the same amount of weight during these 3 months at home as I did during the pregnancy. The "boredom" and hanging around just can easily lead to way too much snacking and I still haven't got clearance to get back to exercise so I'm more sedentary than ever.
In an effort to get back to reality and back into my pre-pregnancy jeans --- I was looking for some easy, healthy snack recipes. Enter - this Blackberry Cobbler. I got it on the cooking light website but modified it a bit.
1 half-pint of blackberries
1/2 cup of sugar
1/2 cup of flour
pinch of cinnamon
1 egg
1 tbsp butter
*Can easily double for larger batch
Preheat oven to 375. Place blackberries (or any fruit) on the bottom of a pie plate. Mix sugar, flour, cinnamon and egg together to form a paste. Top the fruit with paste. Melt the butter and pour over the mixture. Bake for 25 minutes. Broil on low for 1 minute. Enjoy warm or at room temperature. Can be served with ice cream, whipped cream, yogurt --- or just plain, like I had it..last night and with coffee this morning. A new favorite for me!
I forgot to take a pic, oops! Here's one I borrowed.
