Vinegar Cobbler Recipes

BLACKBERRY COBBLER WITH BEST EVER VINEGAR CRUST

Steps:

• Combine the 3 filling ingredients together and set aside.
• For the pastry, cut the shortening into flour and salt mixture, until mealy; beat the egg and mix with the vinegar and water; add to the flour mixture and stir with fork.
• Knead on a lightly floured board 3 or 4 times and roll out 2/3 of the dough into a rectangle to fit bottom and sides of a 7"x12” baking dish; ensure there are no leaks and seal tears with a little water if necessary.
• Put the berry mixture into the pastry shell.
• Roll out the rest of the dough to fit the top of the dish and cut vent holes or designs in the dough; place on the top and crimp the edges together.
• Brush the top with milk and sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake at 375°F for an hour or until center bubbles.
• For juicier cobbler, add a 1/2 cup water before the top goes on.

GRANDMA PRUIT'S VINEGAR PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. Whisk together sugar, flour and nutmeg; set aside. On a lightly floured surface, roll one-third of pie dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; cut into 2x1-in. strips. Layer a deep 12-in. enamel-coated cast-iron skillet or ovenproof casserole with half the strips; sprinkle with half the sugar mixture. Dot with half the butter. Repeat sugar and butter layers., Roll remaining two-thirds of pie dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle. Place over filling, pressing against sides of skillet or casserole. Cut a slit in top. Add vinegar to hot water; slowly pour vinegar mixture through slit. Liquid may bubble up through crust; this is normal. To catch spills, line an oven rack with foil., Bake until crust is golden brown, about 1 hour. Cover edge loosely with foil during the last 15-20 minutes if needed to prevent overbrowning. Remove foil. Cool on a wire rack.
