Wild Berry Cobbler
A simple, nostalgic cobbler for whatever fruit is in season. Juicy fruit, a tender lightly sweet topping, and a hot oven do all the work. Meant to be served warm and shared.
FORAGE BAKER'S NOTES
Flour Matters. Gluten-free flour blends—and even traditional wheat flours—can vary widely in weight per cup, which is why we recommend using a kitchen scale whenever possible.
If measuring by volume, gently scoop Heritage Baker's Flour into a measuring cup and level with a knife. This yields approximately 125g per cup. Packing the cup can result in excess flour and a denser cobbler, while spooning may under-measure.
Sweeteners Matter Too. Sweeteners significantly affect moisture and texture. For best results, we recommend Homestead Sweetener or traditional sugar.
- Homestead Sweetener: 140g per cup (1:1 sugar replacement by volume)
- Granulated Sugar: 200g per cup
- Substitutions may affect moisture, browning, and overall texture.
INGREDIENTS
- 2–3 pounds fruit of choice (berries, stone fruit, apples, or a combination)
- 1⅓ cups (162g) Heritage Baker's Flour
- ½ cup (70g) Homestead Sweetener
- 2 teaspoons baking powder

- ⅔ cup (153g) milk
- 1 large egg (50g)

INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter a 9 x 13 inch baking dish and fill evenly with fruit.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together Heritage Baker's Flour, baking powder, and Homestead Sweetener.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together melted butter, milk, egg, and vanilla extract.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Spoon the batter evenly over the fruit.
- Bake for 26–30 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbling around the edges.
