Frozen Cherries Blue Berries and Cherries Healthy Desserts

Cobblers are one of the easiest no-fuss desserts to put together and they taste so good! Serve this cherry cobbler warm with huge dollops of vanilla ice cream for the perfect summer dessert.

Sometimes berries are like the bananas of the banana bread world. When they go bad, which can be quickly you want to use them up or risk tossing them in the trash and that's a waste! I usually try and throw them in a zip lock bag and freeze them for summer smoothies, but don't forget about making cobbler dessert. It's perfect because it takes a whole lot of berries and along with some simple pantry staple ingredients for the cobbler part.

This summer berry and cherry cobbler uses a mixture of cherries, raspberries, blueberries and strawberries, and a touch of cornstarch and sugar to thicken and sweeten. The cobbler top hs a crunchy surface but is soft underneath where it sits on top of the berries. Ice cream is a given with any type of cobbler. Once it begins to melt with the heat of the cobbler, it forms that yummy creamy sauce that every cobbler is famous for!
