Ingredients

For the Filling:

  • 2½ cups cranberries (I used frozen slightly thawed, but fresh would be fine)
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup maple syrup (I used sugar free)
  • 4 tablespoons bourbon (more if you like it stronger!)
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 3 teaspoons cornstarch

Cobbler Topping:

  • ½ cup light/low fat butter , melted; or Apple sauce
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk)
  • 1 cup light spelt flour (or plain/all purpose)
  • ½ cup brown sugar , packed
  • 1 egg
  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 176c | 350f. Grease a 9-inch pie dish or a nonstick round baking pan with butter or cooking oil spray, and set aside.

Filling:

  • Combine all filling ingredients together in a medium sized bowl, mix well and set aside.

Topping:

  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the butter, milk and sugar until combined. Whisk in the egg. Add the flour, baking powder and salt, and whisk batter until smooth and lump free.
  • Fill dish/pan with cranberry mix and evenly pour the cobbler cake batter over the top.
  • Bake for about 35-45 minutes, or until the cranberry juices are bubbling and the cobbler cake is golden and firm to the touch.
  • Allow to cool for 15 minutes before serving with ice cream, frozen yoghurt, etc!
  • Happy Thanksgiving!
