Stage 4 + 5

Here’s a healthy spin on a sweet family favorite. Preparing this dish in muffin tins instead of one large dish is a fun way to teach portion control while offering each family member their very own cobbler.

  • 3 cups peaches, peeled and mashed 
  • 1/2 cup applesauce
  • 2 tbsp whole wheat flour
  • 2 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp honey*
  • 1 cup crushed graham crackers
  • 1/4 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

For peach filling:
In a large bowl, combine peach slices, ¼ cup of applesauce, flour, 2 teaspoons of cinnamon and honey. Scoop fruit mixture into 9 equal portions in a muffin tin.

For topping:
In a medium bowl, stir together crushed graham crackers, rolled oats and ½ teaspoon of cinnamon. Add melted butter and remaining ¼ cup of applesauce to the dry mixture. Top evenly over peach filling.

Bake uncovered for 25 minutes, or until peaches are bubbly and the topping is golden brown.

*If making for a child under 1, substitute raw sugar for honey.
