Mango Cobbler:

Mangoes:
The mango is a tropical fruit of the mango tree. Mangoes belong to the genus Mangifera which consists of about 30 species of tropical fruiting trees in the flowering plant family Anacardiaceae.
Reference to mangoes as the "food of the gods" can be found in the Hindu Vedas and the leaves are ritually used for floral decorations at Hindu marriages and religious ceremonies.The fruit flesh of a ripe mango contains about 15% sugar, up to 1% protein, and significant amounts of vitamins A, B and C. The taste of the fruit is very sweet, with some cultivars having a slight acidic tang; it tastes roughly like a cross between a peach and a pineapple.More info at WIKIPEDIA.

Here is the delicious Mango Cobbler:



Here's How To Bake It:



YOU NEED:
1 cup diced mango pieces, (1 big ripe string less mango)
1 tbsp sugar
2 tsp water to keep it moist
1 oven proof bowl










For Cobbler Crumb Topping:
2 tbsp chilled butter ( must be cold)
2 1/2 tbsp Plain all-purpose flour
2 tbsp brown sugar
1/8 tsp Cinnamon pd(sweet not dalchini)
Pinch of salt
Pinch of Nutmeg pd











Mix mango,sugar and water,put them in a oven proof bowl. In another plate, mix all the crumb topping ingredients with your fingers to small lumps.Sprinkle crumb topping on the mango mixture.Heat Oven to 375F.This is how it should look before you put it in the oven.






Put in the oven on a baking sheet and bake for 25mins or until the top is golden.
I used Creme Brulee torch to make the top golden.You can also broil the top to get golden. Double the recipe if you want more than one bowl.
Garnish with mango pieces.You can also garnish with little whipped cream.







Here is how the torch looks to use on the crumble toping to caramelize it to a golden crunchy crust!
