Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400F (200C). Lightly spray a 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray and dust it with a little flour, tapping out any excess.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced cranberries, grated apples, grated orange peel, packed brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, and 1 tablespoon of flour. Stir until the fruit is evenly coated with the sugar and spices.
  3. Transfer the fruit mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Dot the top with 1 tablespoon of margarine bits.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/2 cup of flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Add the 2 tablespoons of margarine to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the margarine into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Stir the fat-free plain yogurt into the crumbly dough. Mix just until combined; the dough will be sticky and soft.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of the dough over the cranberry mixture in the baking dish, covering most of the fruit but leaving some gaps for steam to escape.
  8. Sprinkle the granulated sugar evenly over the top of the dough drops.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling around the edges.
  10. Allow the cobbler to cool for 10 minutes before serving to let the filling set slightly. Serve warm.
