Passion fruit banana cobbler- Easy 4 steps Recipe

Juicy and fresh cobblers are the way to make anyone eat fruits. Passion fruit banana cobbler is truly an exciting combination of pretty unusual flavors.

What is a cobbler?

Cobblers are a thick crust pie-baked dish that requires basic or no cooking skills. They are an easy homemade dessert that relies more on flavor. It needs a baking dish, mixed chunks of fruits, and a biscuit or dumpling topping to cover the fruits. As the fruits bake, the biscuit topping drops to give a cobbled appearance.

Cobblers are so popular in American cuisine that may think they originated in the United States, but you will be surprised to know that cobblers were invented in the UK.

What are a cobbler and crumble?

Fresh fruit desserts like cobbler and crumble imbibe the juiciness along with the crispiness of the flaky pastry even after baking. So, where do these little packets of deliciousness differ? It’s their signature appearance that gives them their name!

Both desserts have a rustic appearance, yet, an awesome flavor. The topping in a crisp or crumble mostly contain oats, whereas topping for the crumble can be the crushed biscuits or cake or cookie dough.

Unfortunately, not many people, especially children like to eat fruits. And, my nephew is no exception. Every time we try to get him to eat fruit, my nephew always gives us bad times. He just enjoys bananas and apples, but we also want him to try different flavors. His unwillingness to experiment encouraged us to mug him and with passion fruit banana cobbler he finished it with half the effort. So, moms, this is the recipe for you with my special millet crust twist.
