Did you know...
A cobbler is a deep dish (casserole or soufflé dish) fruit pie (peach is most common) with only a top biscuit dough crust.
Fruit cobblers can be made with almost any fruit, singly or in combination.
The cobbler takes its name from the biscuit dough crust on top - it is rough looking or 'cobbled.' It originated in the U.S. sometime in the early to mid 19th century.
A Cobbler is also a drink, which probably predates the fruit cobbler pie.
A cobbler usually consisted of whiskey or rum with fruit juice and/or sugar, garnished with mint and/or citrus.
