Cobblers, Crumbles, & Crisps and Other Old-Fashioned Fruit Desserts
(Part of the Clarkson Potter Cookbooks Series)
Fresh fruit always makes an appealing finish to any meal, but now you can turn it into something really special by serving it up in a cobbler, crumble, crisp, or slump; a pandowdy, flummery, betty, or grunt. You'll find the recipes for all these wonderful-sounding, great-tasting desserts -- plus pies and tarts, shortcakes, batter cakes, and other fruit favorites in this unique little book that provides a taste of our American culinary heritage from early New England, the Midwest farm country, and the Old West. Included are more than fifty easy recipes, traditional and new, from Apple-Cheddar Crumble, Blueberry Flummery, Warm Rhubarb Shortcakes, and White Peach and Mango Betty to Pineapple-Blood Orange Ambrosia, Frosty Mango Fool, and Floating Lemon Sponge Pie. You'll also find master recipes for crusts, toppings, and sauces, and tips on ingredients and preparation that will help you to whip up any of these heavenly desserts in no time at all.

Pure Heaven!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I received Coblers, Crumbles and Crisps as a gift a few years ago, and since then I have made almost every recipe in this book! I would like to thank the authors for giving me a reputation as a decent baker among my friends, who often call me up for the recipe for the Blueberry Grunt! Great Stuff. I also highly recommend the British Isles Blackberry Cobler with some rich vanilla ice cream melting over the top! It is unbelievable. This book is easy to follow and the authors descritions are tantalizing and full of personality. I have tried out recipes from many other books but none have matched up to the ones in this collection. Whether you are a beginner or just love to bake, this book is a must have!
