Quince and Berry Cobbler

Prep: 20 mins | Cook: 40 mins | Total: 60 mins | Quantity: 8 portions

Ingredients

Fruit:

1 cup (250g) sugar

1 cup (250ml) water

1 lemon – grated zest and juice

3 quince – peeled, core removed and flesh sliced or diced

approx 3 cups (500g) berries – fresh or frozen – can use a mix or one type of berry

1 teaspoon vanilla

Cobbler Topping:

1 + 1/2 cups (200g) plain flour

200g vegan block butter

1/2 cup (125g) sugar

1/4 cup (65ml) non-dairy milk (I used oat milk)

Instructions

  1. Pour the sugar and water for the fruit into a large saucepan along with the lemon juice and zest and bring to a boil
  2. Add the prepared quince and cook for 10 minutes until the fruit just beginning to soften
  3. Add the berries and the vanilla. If using frozen fruit bubble for a further 10 minutes, for fresh cook for another 5 minutes
  4. Using a slotted spoon or similar remove the berries from the syrup (it doesn't matter if a few stray berries remain!), increase the heat and boil rapidly for 5-10 minutes until the liquid has thickened and become more syrupy
  5. Return the berries to the pan, stir together then tip into a baking dish
  6. Preheat your oven to 180 Fan / 200 C / 400 F / Gas 6
  7. In a bowl put the flour and butter then rub the two together using your fingertips until no large lumps of butter remain and you've got what looks like very coarse sand
  8. Stir in the sugar then the milk and mix to a soft, sticky dough
  9. Drop lumps of the dough on top of the berries in the baking dish until they are completely covered with the dough
  10. Put the baking dish on a baking tray then pop in the oven for 30-35 minutes until the cobbler topping is golden and just set
  11. Allow just a few minutes to cool before serving

Notes

  • Vegan vanilla ice cream or pouring cream go very well with this berry cobbler!
  • Leftovers can be kept in the fridge and warmed in the microwave or oven
