Just because your heart healthy diet calls for cutting down on fat, doesn't mean you can't enjoy dessert. This cobbler cuts fat and includes apples, an excellent source of fiber.
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 medium tart apples (like Macintosh or Granny Smith), peeled and sliced
- 3/4 cup reduced fat biscuit mix
- 2 tablespoons light margarine, melted
- 3 tablespoons water
Mix cornstarch, sugar and cinnamon in a saucepan. Add 3/4 cup water and mix well. Add apples. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until liquid thickens and apples just begin to soften, about 6 minutes. Pour into 1-quart casserole dish. Stir biscuit mix and margarine together. Add 3 tablespoons water and mix well. Spread on top of apple mixture. Bake at 400 degrees until top is lightly browned, about 30 minutes.
