Rhubarb Cherry Cobbler Recipe

Prep: 30 min. Bake: 30 min.

Yield: 12 Servings

30 30 60

Ingredients

1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3/4 teaspoon ground allspice
2 cans (21 ounces each) cherry pie filling
3 cups diced fresh or frozen rhubarb, thawed
ALMOND TOPPING:
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons sugar, divided
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/4 cup sliced almonds

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the sugar, cornstarch and allspice. Fold in pie filling and rhubarb.
Transfer to an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Cover and bake at 400° for 15-20 minutes or until rhubarb is tender.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the flour, 3 tablespoons sugar, baking powder and salt; stir in the cream and extract just until a soft dough forms. Drop by spoonfuls over cherry mixture; sprinkle with almonds and remaining sugar.
Bake, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes or until topping is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Serve warm. Yield: 12 servings.

Editor's Note: If using frozen rhubarb, measure rhubarb while still frozen, then thaw completely. Drain in a colander, but do not press liquid out.

I had to halve this recipe and make it in an 8" square pan since I didn't have enough rhubarb. I love the dumplings, slight almond flavor nicely offsets the sweet/tart of the filling. Think I'll try it with other fruit combinations too.
