Tangy cranberries and a soft cookie-like browned butter cornmeal topping are an unbeatable holiday combo in this easy cranberry browned butter cornmeal cobbler!
The cobbler club can and WILL tackle the holiday dessert game.
Cobblers ain’t just for the peaches. Although peach cobbler is just about my favorite thing on the planet, cranberry cobbler piled with browned butter goodness is giving it a run for its money.
And don’t even ask, this is most DEFINITELY that kinda dessert you attack straight from the pan with your heavy-dutiest spoon. <<< you know that’s how we roll around here.
Pretty much with anything containing browned butter in the official title.
Easy-peasy holiday desserts are literally the most important thing and this cranberry browned butter cornmeal cobbler hits every single easy note. >>>
TWO parts, y’all! Cranberry filling is first up and its just cranberries and sugar. Nice and easy cause the cranberries thicken themselves into a luscious sauce as they bake.
Browned butter cornmeal topping gets spread over EVERY inch of the cranberry filling and trust me, you want that. It’s buttery, rustic, and kinda cookie-like in texture which obviously wins it all.
Also, I propose that cranberry browned butter cornmeal cobbler be a breakfast AND dessert food. Its fruit and cookies and its holiday-season so roll with me here, please.
Heck, you could even get your dairy in if you top it with whipped cream. Or ice cream. Or both?
