Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 cups berries
  • ¼ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup milk (2% or whole, not skim)
  • cup flour
  • 3 eggs
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Optional (To Serve): more fresh berries, powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven 400ºF.
  • Add butter to the bottom of a deep dish pie pan (or 8"x8" baking dish). Place in oven while it's preheating.
  • Dice any large berries into bite-size pieces.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add all remaining ingredients except the fruit. Whisk well.
  • Remove pie pan from the oven, and add fruit to the pan. Pour batter over fruit.
  • Bake 35-40 minutes until flognarde is golden and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Allow to cool 5-10 minutes. 
    Note: If you skip the cooling time, the flognarde won't hold its shape when cut.
  • Dust flognarde with powdered sugar (optional), and serve with fresh berries if desired.
  • Store leftover cobbler in the fridge for up to 4-5 days.

Notes

Gluten-Free Adaptions: I have not personally tested this recipe with gluten-free flour, but readers have reported that it works well with Bob’s Red Mill 1 for 1 GF flour + ⅔ teaspoon baking powder.
