Cherry-Apple Cobbler

Make sure the fruit filling is hot when you spoon the biscuit batter over it. That way, the bottom of the "cobbled biscuit" will be thoroughly cooked.

1. For biscuit topping, in a medium bowl stir together all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, 2 tablespoons of the granulated sugar, the baking powder, orange peel, and 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.

2. For filling, in a medium saucepan stir together the cold water, cornstarch, the remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon; add frozen cherries. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Stir in apple slices; heat through. Reduce heat; keep filling hot.

3. In a small bowl stir together egg substitute and milk. Add to biscuit topping mixture, stirring just until moistened. Transfer hot filling to a 2-quart square baking dish. Immediately spoon topping into 9 small mounds on filling. Bake in a 400 degrees F oven for 18 to 20 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center of a biscuit comes out clean. Serve warm. Makes 9 (1/2-cup) servings.

From the editors: Because 1 srvg of this recipe has a full srvg of fruit and a sweet biscuit, 1/2 cup keeps carbs around 30 grams (2 carb. choices). Desserts are an indulgence and while we�ve grown accustom to large portions, a small amount should do. If there's room in your meal plan for more carb you could have a larger srvng, but be sure to balance with non-starchy veggies and low-fat protein. Note an un-healthy version of cherry cobbler: (1/2 cup + biscuit) = 386 cal., 10 g fat, 73 g carb
