INSTRUCTIONS
Date: Tue, 5 Mar 1996 13:46:46 -0600 (CST) From: jlspreit@midway.uchicago.edu (Jennifer Spreitzer) I made this cobbler for the Chicago Hotluck and everyone who tried it liked it. I added jalapenos (2 of 'em) to the recipe, and although the cobbler itself was good, it wasn't hot enough for my taste. The tartness of the cranberries seemed to overpower/dampen the heat of the chiles. The cranberry/chile pepper combo is a good one, though, so I'm going to keep trying. When I make it again I'll probably add about six jalapenos, or maybe 2 habs. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Combine the cranberries, cranberry juice and jalapenos in a saucepan, bring to the boil, lower heat, and simmer for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, peel, core and cut apples into 1/2-inch-thick slices (about 2 cups). Add the apples and orange rind, return heat to simmer, and continue cooking for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, sift the flour and baking powder together into a mixing bowl. Stir in the sugar. Cut in the butter until mixture forms a fine meal. Add the eggs, milk, vanilla and lemon rind, and mix with a wooden spoon until well blended, adding a little more flour if necessary to produce a loose but not wet batter. Pour cranberry mixture into a 2-quart baking dish; then pour the batter evenly over the top (scraping to cover, if necessary). Bake for about 1 hour or till top is golden brown and cake tester comes out clean. Serve hot or at room temperature.
