Sparkling Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler
Recipe

Ingredients:
2 cups fresh strawberries
           or 16 oz unsweetened frozen strawberries (thawed)
1-1/2 cups fresh rhubarb, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup Deaver Vineyards Raspberry Sparkling Wine*
1 1/3 cups flour
3 tablespoons sugar, divided
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
4 tablespoons margarine, cut into small pieces
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup milk

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Coat an 8-inch square pan with cooking spray.

In large bowl, combine strawberries, rhubarb, sugar, cornstarch, and Deaver Vineyards Raspberry Sparkling Wine. Mix well and spoon into bottom of prepared pan.

To prepare dough, in a large bowl or food processor, combine flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and baking soda. Add margarine and mix with your fingers or pulse in food processor until mixture resembles coarse bread crumbs.

Add sour cream and milk and mix until dough comes together.

Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and knead 5-6 times, until blended.

Divide dough into 8 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Place balls onto top of strawberry-rhubarb mixture and gently press down to flatten. Brush the surface of dough with egg and sprinkle remaining sugar over top.

Bake until strawberry filling is bubbly and dough is golden brown, 45 minutes. Cool 15 minutes before serving.

Serves 8 

Serve with  a glass of Deaver Vineyards Raspberry flavored California Sparkling Wine in the company of good friends.
