Notes

Storage. Once the cobbler has cooled, cover the dish with plastic wrap or transfer the cobbler to an airtight container with a lid. Store the cobbler in the refrigerator. Consume within five days.

Freezing. This cobbler must be baked before freezing. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and then a layer of aluminum foil. Place the cobbler on a level surface in the freezer. Consume within three months. Allow the cobbler to thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.

Reheating. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake the cobbler for 20-30 minutes until heated through. If the crust begins to brown too quickly, loosely cover the top with aluminum foil.
