Slow Berry Cobbler

Holy smokes, almost 2 weeks since my last post. Can you tell we've been a little busy?! I thought I'd share the cobbler that I made for the party we attended for July 4th. When Grandma asks for the recipe, and asks if I picked the berries myself...I knew it was a success! I came across this recipe, and knew it was for me when I saw that I could dump it all in the crockpot and leave it for hours while in the pool...well, that and it's a Paula Deen recipe. I doubled this, and y'all...there was one little spoonful left at the end! I promise, you won't regret making this!

Ingredients

Filling:

  • 1 (10-ounce) bag frozen strawberries
  • 1 (10-ounce) bag frozen blueberries
  • 1 (10-ounce) bag frozen raspberries
  • 1/3 to 2/3 cup sugar, depending on your level of preferred sweetness
  • 1/2 cup baking mix

Topping:

  • 2 1/4 cups baking mix
  • 1/4 cup sugar, plus 1/4 cup
  • 4 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Directions

Spray the insert of a slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.

In a large mixing bowl, toss together all the frozen fruit, sugar and 1/2 cup baking mix. Transfer the fruit to the slow cooker. In another large mixing bowl, stir together 2 1/4 cups baking mix, 1/4 cup sugar, melted butter and milk with a wooden spoon. With your hands, drop bits of dough on top of the fruit in the slow cooker. In a small mixing bowl, stir together the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar on top of the dough and place the lid on the slow cooker. Turn the power onto high and slow cook for 3 to 4 hours until the topping has puffed and the fruit is bubbling.

Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream.
