My mother would do cobblers and the batter was thin enough to pour
over the fruit and sink to the bottom of the pan. Then it would rise
as the cobbler cooked and slightly brown. Either way they're
gooooood.

Do you have a recipe for the thin batter? You're telling it like you
don't, but I can at least ask. I've made cobble exactly once and I
didn't like it, which was really too bad because the peaches were
wonderful. Don't think I've ever eaten a cobbler made by someone else
either, so that was the extent of my cobbler experience. I'm a
Northerner, so crisp is my genre and I absolutely *love* that.

Me too, I love any kind of crisp, but apple is my favorite.

This is a thin batter. Even though the batter is poured over the
butter, everything rises up through and around the fruit.

Janet's recipe is what my mother used, just a thinner batter, more
milk, and like she said it rises up and around the fruit. The fruit
went in first and then the thin batter was poured slowly into the pan
and it would sink. As it cooked it would rise up around the fruit
just like Janet's. Give Janet's a shot, I'm sure you'll love it.

Could I use thawed mixed berries? Someone gave me a bag of this stuff and
It's just taking up space in the freezer. A cobbler might be a good way to
use it.

I would think so. You could do a taste test first. Thaw a small amount of
the berries, add some sugar then heat them up. If that's a good taste to
you, the recipe will be even better with the batter.

I plan to try this recipe using peaches. I love a peach cobbler. I'll cut
the recipe in half though for health/weight reasons. The gang here will eat
it all up in record time. The problem with a full cobbler is that I'm the
only member of the gang here. heheh

I would think so, although I have never done so. The sugar ratio
seems like it would be o.k. I don't think the frozen/thawed part
would be a problem.

So, basically you're saying to take any cobbler batter and thin it
down? How thin is it, would you say to crepe or Yorkshire pudding
batter state or thinner than that?

Okay, thanks. I'm going for it and will try peaches again.

Those frozen berries make great smoothies (don't bother to thaw, just
throw them in the blender and they take the place of ice cubes). I
make my smoothies with yogurt, not ice cream. If you're ever in the
mood to make dessert crepes, they make a good topping for that too
(thawed this time).

I just stumbled across a recipe that calls for defrosted frozen mixed
berries.

Looks tasty! It also doesn't look like anything I'll ever make. Almond
meal, cream cheese and heavy cream aren't staples I have just sitting around
the house. But thanks!

Good Lord, how thin was it? The recipe that Janet posted pretty thin,
thinner that most cake batters. I would say it's probably the
consistancy of heavy cream.

It wasn't watery by any means but thin enough to pour, much like a
breakfast milk gravy. If you make thin watery breakfast gravy then
you'll not know the consistency I'm writing about.

The batter is thin. I wouldn't alter it unless you ask specifically
for a different recipe from someone else.
