Winter is setting in and I've been looking to make warming, comforting dessert recipes that will fit into my Weight Watchers plan.
I'm always on the look out for Weight Watchers dessert recipes that are easy to make and don't use up all of my Points in one sitting.
I used canned peaches in this recipe, partly because fresh peaches are so expensive (where I live) but also because using canned ones saved me the time & effort of peeling fresh ones!
Can I store this Cobbler?
I like to eat this Peach & Blueberry Cobbler, warm, straight from the oven. But if you have any cobbler left over, it can be stored, covered in the fridge for 2 to 3 days.
How to reheat this Cobbler.
You can reheat the cobbler in the oven or in a microwave.
If you are using an oven to reheat, remove the cobbler from the fridge and then preheat the oven to 350f / 180c. Once the oven has reached temperature, place the dish in the middle of the oven and heat for 15 - 20 minutes until it has warmed through. You can always place a piece of foil over the top to stop it browning too much, if need be.
If you use a microwave to reheat, the topping may not retain the same texture as it did when first baked but it'll still taste great! Microwave at 30 second intervals till it is warmed through.

Peach & Blueberry Cobbler
Ingredients
- 1 can peaches in juice 15oz can - drained
- 1 cup blueberries (200g)
- ½ tbsp sugar
- 2 tsp corn starch / cornflour
- 2 tbsp water
Topping
- ½ cup all purpose flour / plain flour (70g)
- ⅛ tsp salt
- ½ tsp baking soda / bicarbonate of soda
- 1 tbsp butter (15g) - cold butter is best
- 1.5 tbsp sugar
- ½ tsp cinnamon optional
- 2 tbsp fat free yogurt
- 1 egg
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350f / 180c / 160c fan.
- Drain the peaches and place them in a saucepan with the blueberries.
- In a small bowl mix the water, cornstarch and ½ tablespoon of sugar until smooth and lump free.
- Pour the mixture over the fruit and cook over a medium heat, stirring occasionally until most of the liquid has cooked off. This should leave you with fruit that is layered in a thick syrupy covering.
- Remove from the heat and spoon into a serving dish (I used a 7 inch diameter dish).
- Place the flour, baking soda & salt into a bowl and mix to combine. Add the butter and use your fingers tips or a knife to rub the butter into the flour until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
- Stir in the sugar and cinnamon (if using).
- Crack the egg into the mixture and use a fork to stir it in. Add the yogurt and stir.
- Use a spoon to dollop 6 even blobs of the mixture on to the top of the fruit. There is no need to spread the mixture out - it will spread slightly when baking.
- Place in the preheated over for 30 - 40 minutes, until the topping has risen slightly and turned golden brown.
