Ingredients

  • 4 cups frozen pitted dark sweet cherries (about 19 oz.), thawed and well drained

  • ¼ cup granulated sugar

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats

  • ½ cup white whole-wheat flour

  • ¼ cup packed light brown sugar

  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened

Directions

  1. Preheat grill to medium (350-400 degrees F). Coat a 9-inch cast-iron skillet with cooking spray.

  2. Combine cherries, granulated sugar and lemon juice in a large bowl; toss well to coat. Transfer to the prepared pan.

  3. Combine oats, flour, brown sugar and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Add butter; stir until the mixture is thoroughly combined and holds together loosely.

  4. Sprinkle the oat mixture over the cherry mixture. Cover the pan with foil. Grill, with grill lid closed, for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and continue grilling, with the lid closed, until the cobbler is bubbly and golden, about 10 more minutes. Remove from grill and let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
