Frequently Asked Questions
Can I keep this cobbler in the fridge?
Allow the cobbler to cool completely, then cover it and store it in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Can this be frozen?
Yes. Make sure to let the cobbler cool fully before wrapping it in plastic, then in two layers of foil (it’s ideal to freeze the cobbler in their pans for easy warming). Allow the frozen cobbler to thaw in the fridge overnight. Once thawed, bring the cobbler to room temperature, then reheat in the oven until just warmed through.
How long should Cobbler cool?
Make sure to give the cobbler enough time to cool and eventually thicken. At least 5 to 10 minutes, then you are ready to slice and serve.
