National Cherry Cobbler Day

Each year, National Cherry Cobbler Day is dedicated to the delectable tart dessert that many people enjoy with ice cream... Many believe the early American Colonies are where this dish was born out of a lack of good cooking utensils.

In the United States, cobbler refers to a variety of dishes consisting of a fruit filling (cherry being a common choice) and a batter, biscuit, or pie crust that is then baked. Some cobblers have both a top and bottom crust.

Cobblers were born in the early British American colonies. English settlers were unable to make their traditional suet puddings due to a lack of suitable ingredients and proper cooking techniques. They improved by coating a stewed filling with a layer of uncooked biscuits or dumplings.

A cherry cobbler differs from a crisp as a cobbler lacks oatmeal. Sometimes the cobbler is served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Cherries also have a bounty of vitamins. Antioxides in this red fruit, for example, shield cell membranes from damage. Since cherries pack an anti-inflammatory punch, they may also help reduce heart disease risk.
