Breakfast Cobbler Made in a Slow Cooker

Ingredients

• 5 apples - peeled, cored, and diced
• 2 pears - peeled, cored, and diced
• ½ cup fresh blueberries
• ½ cup fresh blackberries
• ½ cup agave nectar
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 tablespoon brandy-based orange liqueur (such as Grand Marnier®)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ teaspoon ground ginger
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• Topping:
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup pecan pieces
• ½ cup turbinado sugar
• ½ cup rolled oats
• ½ cup butter, cut into small pieces
• ¼ cup ground flax seeds
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon sea salt

Step 1

Tos the apples, pears, blueberries, blackberries, agave, cornstarch, lime juice, orange liqueur, vanilla, ginger, and cinnamon together right in your slow cooker. Give everything a good stir so it’s well mixed.

Step 2

In a separate bowl or even a resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, pecans, sugar, oats, butter, ground flax seeds, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Use a fork, your fingers, or a pastry blender to crumble the mixture until it looks like coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Sprinkle this crumbly topping evenly over the fruit in the slow cooker. Cover it up and let it cook on low for about 8 hours or overnight, until the fruit is bubbly and the topping turns golden brown.

Step 4

Once it’s done, give it a little time to cool before serving. It’s perfect on its own or with a scoop of yogurt or ice cream!
