Fourth of July Cherry Cobbler

You don’t get any more American than cherry pie for the 4th of July. I modified the recipe so that everyone can have their own ramekin of cherry cobbler. Even though I cut down on the sugar, the result was a sweet and tart cobbler leaving my kids asking for seconds.

Ingredients

  • 2 pints cherries, depitted

  • 2 pouches instant oatmeal (I used 1 Cinnamon Spice and 1 Maple and Brown Sugar)

  • 1/2 cup applesauce (unsweetened)

  • 1 TBS corn starch

  • 1 TBS honey

  • 1 TBS lemon juice

  • Nonstick cooking spray

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Depit the cherries. Place depitted cherries in a medium-sized bowl.
  • Create a slurry in a measuring cup by combining corn starch, lemon juice, and honey. Mix well.
  • Add the slurry to the cherries. Mix to combine.
  • Spray the 4 ramekins with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Scoop an even amount of cherries into each ramekin. Each ramekin should be no more than half full.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, mix oatmeal with the applesauce. Your mixture should be moist. If it is dry, add more applesauce.
  • Add 1/4 cup of the oatmeal mixture to each ramekin.
  • Bake for thirty minutes or until oatmeal is browned.
