Ingredients

4 cups peeled and diced ripe mangoes
½ cup granulated white sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon cornstarch

For The Topping

1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup old fashioned oats (rolled oats)
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ cup granulated white sugar
½ teaspoon ground cardamom
8 tablespoons cold unsalted butter cut into 1-inch cubes

Instructions

Make The Filling

Add mangoes, sugar, butter, and cornstarch to a non-stick pan and mix well.
Cook for 10 minutes on medium heat until bubbly and thickened. Stir frequently while cooking.
Remove the pan from the heat and set it aside.

Make The Topping

Combine all-purpose flour, oats, baking powder, sugar, and ground cardamom in a medium-size mixing bowl.
Add cold unsalted butter cubes to the bowl and mix using your fingertips to make a crumbly mixture. Do not overmix. You can also use a fork to mix the butter with the flour mixture.
Note – The small pieces of cold butter prevent gluten development. It makes the crust flaky and crumbly. If the butter is softened, the crust will become hard cracker-like.

Bake The Cobbler

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Transfer the mango filling to an 8×8 baking pan and spread evenly.
Spread the flour mixture evenly over the mango mixture.
Keep the pan in the middle rack of the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes until the edges are bubbling and the top is browned.
Remove the pan from the oven. Scoop out the hot cobbler in the serving bowls using a large spoon. Top with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream and serve warm.

Notes

Choose ripe and juicy mangoes to make this cobbler. Florida mangoes, Champagne mangoes, or Indian varieties like Alphonso work great.

To check if the mango is ripe, gently press it. It should be slightly soft and give back a little. It should also smell fruity and sweet.

You can adjust the amount of sugar according to your taste.

You can also use other fruits such as strawberries, peaches, apples, blueberries instead of mango to prepare this dessert.
