It is our pleasure to introduce you to Sarah Hamilton, our next “Celebrity Chef”, in our “Busy Mom” series. Sarah has graciously offered to share her recipe for fruit cobbler, a quick dessert that her children enjoy. 

This recipe is a tried and true favourite family.  It has been passed down from one generation to the next and now grandma’s cobbler has become one of the kids favourite desserts.  Of course, Mom likes it because it’s very easy to make and you have everything you need to make it in your cupboard.

According to Sarah you can quickly make it before you start supper and by the time supper is ready, it’s done.
Sarah likes strawberry / rhubarb cobbler the best but her children’s favourite is apple.  She laughs and acknowledges that “they enhale it. I don’t think it has ever lasted more than two days.”

She makes it at least once a month and often takes it to family potlucks or picnics.  “Hands down it is one of our favourites”, she adds.

Sarah likes to “follow the seasons” and use fresh fruit but it can be made with frozen fruit.  And we know she uses locally grown fruit as her Mom operates Hamilton’s U Pick growing strawberries, raspberries and rhubarb.
