Fruit based desserts are a family favorite. Everyone loves them! My healthier eaters devour this dessert and my chocolate smores lovers agree that this dessert is a summertime winner too. Serve with vanilla ice cream for the perfect summer night dessert. The fresh basil gives this a summer zing, but omit it if you don’t have any fresh basil around.

Ingredients

For the fruit mixture:

1 cup of fresh blueberries
6-8 peaches thinly sliced
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 tablespoons flour
⅓ cup of sugar
1 teaspoon freshly chopped basil

For the crumble:

1 cup of flour
⅓ cup sugar
¼ cup brown sugar
½ cup of room temperature margarine I use the earth balance oil sticks
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon of salt
¼ cup of chopped walnuts or pecans

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a large bowl, mix blueberries, peaches, lemon juice, flour, sugar, and basil and place the fruit mixture in a large serving dish or individual ramekins. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, with a fork, mix flour, sugar, brown sugar, margarine, cinnamon, salt and nuts forming a crumble with coarse chunks. Pour on top of the fruit mixture, pressing a little and spreading to cover.
Place dish on top of sheet pan to catch any pan drippings. Cook the cobbler for 40-45 minutes, until the top is golden brown. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
