Slow Cooking Thursday

Now that things are starting to slow down here again, I'm ready to start posting more frequently. Berries are starting to become more available here in the northeast. I love berry crisps and cobblers so here is a good one for the crockpot. Picture is from the taste of home website.

Slow Cooker Berry Cobbler

1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
2 tablespoons plus 1 cup Sugar, divided
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/4 cup fat-free milk
2 tablespoons canola oil
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cups unsweetened raspberries
2 cups unsweetened blueberries
2 cups reduced-fat frozen vanilla yogurt, optional

Directions:
In a large bowl, combine 1 cup flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder and cinnamon. In a small bowl, combine the egg, milk and oil; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened (batter will be thick). Spread batter evenly onto the bottom of a 5-qt. slow cooker coated with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the salt and remaining flour and sugar; add berries and toss to coat. Spread over batter.
Cover and cook on high for 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until a toothpick inserted into cobbler comes out without crumbs. Top each serving with 1/4 cup frozen yogurt if desired. Yield: 8 servings.
