A Sweet and Doughy Polenta Cobbler

While most cobblers use a flour-only option for the dough on top, you can absolutely make cobbler from polenta! In fact, I almost prefer the polenta cobbler to the more conventional flour-only version.

If you plan to eat it for breakfast, it’s good to know you can assemble unbaked cobbler the night before and then just refrigerate it overnight. Then all you have to do in the morning is wake and bake! A healthy, effortless, warm-breakfast for busy mornings!

Why our Easy Recipe for Apple Cobbler with Cranberries is a Healthy Option

Most cobbler recipes are filled with sugar, gluten, dairy, and are strictly desserts. Our Easy Recipe for Apple Cobbler with Cranberries, on the other hand is free of all of those inflammatory ingredients, and is actually healthy!

Want to know why are cobbler stands out against the rest? Here’s a quick rundown of the changes we made…

Traded Refined Sugar for Natural Sweeteners

In our cobbler recipe (as well as all of our other recipes here at Clean Cuisine), we ditched the refined-sugar, and opted for natural sweeteners instead! Natural sweeteners are are nutrient-rich, and far superior to empty calorie refined sugar.

In this recipe, we used date sugar, maple syrup, and fresh fruit for the sweetness!

Swapped Cream and Butter for Dairy-Free Options

Here at Clean Cuisine, we simply do not agree that milk does the body any good. At the very least, the benefits are nowhere near substantial enough to overshadow the ill-effects. Besides, who needs dairy with so many amazing dairy-free alternatives out there these days!

In this recipe, we swapped the butter for coconut oil (the perfect swap with tons of benefits), and cream for hemp milk. Easy peasy, and much less inflammatory!

Swapped Flour for Gluten Free Alternatives

Traditionally, the biscuits on top of a cobbler are made with all purpose flour. Instead of suffering the inflammatory effects of gluten, we simply swapped all purpose flour out for a gluten free flour and polenta combo! Seriously moist and delicious, without wheat.

Used Whole Fruits

Most cobbler recipes call for peeling the fruit before adding to the cobbler. However, the skin is where many of the nutrients and much of the fiber is found! Instead of removing those nutrients, we kept the skin on in our recipe for an even tastier, and more nutritious treat!

Ways to Enjoy Apple Cobbler with Cranberries

Like mentioned above, you can enjoy this Easy Recipe for Apple Cobbler with Cranberries for breakfast or dessert! The choice is yours, and either way, you’re getting hearty and healthy nutrition from this dish!

Here are just a few ways we love to enjoy our Apple Cobbler with Cranberries:

Add a Big Scoop of Ice Cream: Want to dress up your Apple Cobbler a bit more? If you’re in the dessert mood, a big scoop of Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream will be sure to satisfy your sweet tooth!

Try Adding Whipped Cream: Still perfect for dessert, whipped cream is a mild and lighter option for your Cobbler dessert!

Enjoy Alongside Oats: Looking for a breakfast option? Of course you can enjoy this Easy Recipe for Apple Cobbler with Cranberries on its own, but you can add a few more grains, and a bit of diversity to your meal with a side of oatmeal. Personally, I love plain oatmeal alongside my cobbler with just a dash of honey.

Crumble in Yogurt: Okay, you may think I’m crazy for this one…but trust me, cobbler crumbled in Homemade Yogurt with Coconut Cream is the perfect combination of tart and sweet! Think of it as a yogurt parfait. You have the fruit in your cobbler, with the biscuits on top substituting the granola. Truly a perfect combination!
