Cobblers, crisps, crumbles; they’re all the same, right? Actually, while they’re all baked desserts made with fruit, there are distinctions between the three. Cobblers have a biscuit topping which resembles a cobbled road, and so it was named accordingly. Though crisps and crumbles both have a streusel-like topping, they have but one difference. Crisps contain oats which tend to crisp up the crumbly topping, while crumbles do not. Whatever you call it, warm fruit with any sort of pastry dough is delectable. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and it’s irresistible.
