Healthy, Diabetic Friendly Fresh and Fruity Cobbler Recipe

Healthy, Diabetic Friendly Fresh and Fruity Cobbler Recipe

This Fresh and Fruity Cobbler allows you to enjoy a great dessert without guilt and it is also suitable for diabetics. The recipe calls for blueberries, nectarines, and strawberries. If there are other fresh fruits available to you, feel free to make substitutions. For instance you could substitute peaches for nectarines. If possible, do not substitute something else for the blueberries as blueberries are scientifically known to be one of the healthiest foods we have. Serve with a scoop of ice cream for a real treat!

FRESH AND FRUITY COBBLER

Biscuit Topping (Recipe Follows)

1/4 cup water

5 tsp Splenda, divided

1 tsp cornstarch

1/2 cup fresh blueberries

1/2 cup sliced peeled nectarine

1/2 cup strawberries, halved

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare the biscuit topping.

Combine water, 3 teaspoons of the Splenda, and cornstarch in a small saucepan until well blended. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes or until mixture thickens, stirring constantly. Remove saucepan from the heat; let stand 5 minutes.

Add the blueberries, nectarine, and strawberries to the sugar mixture; toss to coat. Spoon fruit mixture into a small casserole dish. Sprinkle the remaining two teaspoons of Splenda over the fruit. Drop tablespoons of the biscuit topping around the edge of the casserole dish. Bake for 20 minutes or until topping is browned. Serve immediately.

Yield 2 servings.

BISCUIT TOPPING:

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

1 tbsp Splenda

1/4 tsp baking powder

1/8 tsp baking soda

1 tbsp + 1 tsp butter

3 tbsp nonfat sour cream

2 tsp egg substitute

1/4 tsp vanilla

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and baking soda in a medium bowl. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine sour cream, egg substitute and vanilla in a small bowl until well blended. Stir into flour mixture just until dry ingredients are moistened.

Enjoy!

    The ingredients for many baked items are very similar. Blueberry muffins, blueberry scones, blueberry coffeecake, blueberry pancakes, etc. will all have flour, baking powder and/or baking soda, sugar, salt, and a combination of different liquids such as oil, milk, cream, sour cream, buttermilk, etc. It's the amount of each of these ingredients that determines the texture, denseness and mouth-feel of the baked product.

    So to answer your question, yes, you can probably use a blueberry muffin mix to make a cake, however, you will need to find a recipe for some kind of a blueberry cake to see what might be missing from the muffin mix that would be needed to make it into a cake mix.

    The only other suggestion I have is to maybe find a blueberry pound cake box mix, and make cupcakes out of it. I'm sure your daughter would love this just as much. Happy birthday to the little one!

    Depends upon whether you want a high-bush or low-bush blueberry, Vaccinium. My favorite is the Top hat blueberry and it is a low bush…only gets 18-24 inches tall and it can really put out the blueberries. If you are interested in container blueberries the Top Hat is a real winner: http://www.naturehills.com/product/top_hat_blueberry.aspx.
    For a high-bush plant that is very sweet and great producer try Duke, it produces a large sweet berry. http://www.naturehills.com/product/duke_blueberry.aspx

    Jams are made from crushed or ground, whole fruit and usually have a thick consistency due to high pectin content.

    Conserves are jams made from a mixture of fruits. They usually contain citrus fruit, nuts, and raisins.
