Scale
- 4 cups mixed berries (fresh or frozen) – 570g
- 2 medium apples, peeled and diced – 300g
- 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey – 60ml
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice – 30ml
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch – 8g
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract – 5ml
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon – 1.5g
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats – 180g
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour or almond flour – 60g
- 1/3 cup chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, or almonds) – 40g
- 1/4 cup brown sugar or coconut sugar – 50g
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil or butter – 60ml

- 1 teaspoon baking powder – 4g
- 1/2 teaspoon salt – 3g

Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare Your Baking Dish Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) if you’re baking immediately. Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or a thin layer of coconut oil. This prevents sticking and makes serving your **Giddy Up And Go Breakfast Cobbler** much easier. The wider dish creates more surface area for that delicious crispy topping everyone loves.
- Step 2: Create the Fruit Base In a large bowl, combine your mixed berries and diced apples. If you’re using frozen berries, keep them frozen for best results. Add the maple syrup, lemon juice, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Toss gently until all the fruit is evenly coated with the mixture. The cornstarch will help thicken the natural juices released during baking, while the lemon juice brightens the flavors and helps prevent browning of the apples.
- Step 3: Prepare the Cobbler Topping In a separate medium bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, chopped nuts, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Stir until well mixed. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil (or butter) and Greek yogurt until smooth. Pour this wet mixture over your dry ingredients and stir until everything is just moistened. The topping should be slightly crumbly but hold together when pressed.
- Step 4: Assemble and Bake Transfer your fruit mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Using your fingers, crumble the oat topping over the fruit layer, covering it completely. Don’t press the topping down—the irregular texture creates delicious crispy edges. If baking immediately, place in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes until the fruit is bubbling around the edges and the topping is golden brown. For make-ahead preparation, cover your assembled but unbaked cobbler with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Step 5: Serve and Enjoy Allow your **Giddy Up And Go Breakfast Cobbler** to cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. This cooling period allows the fruit layer to set slightly and makes it easier to portion. Serve warm with a dollop of Greek yogurt, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a sprinkle of chopped nuts for extra protein. For busy mornings, portion individual servings into microwave-safe containers for quick reheating throughout the week.
