  4. 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Since some reviews said this was too sweet, I only used 1/2 of the brown sugar. This is one of the best things I’ve ever made! It’s THAT good…and easy!

This went over so big, everyone just loved it. I am always making desserts for everyone and this was a good twist or the cobbler story.Thanks Giada.

This recipe is very easy to make from on-hand ingredients (substituted cornstarch for the arrowroot but it is not anything special Might be better if fresh rather than canned pineapple were used. I made this in 4 individual dishes but it could easily serve 6 people.

This is excellent!! It is quite sweet but my family loved the combination of pineapple and appricots. I did cut the sugar in the topping and used Splenda Brown sugar as my husband is diabetic. I also used a casserole and baked it for 35 minutes. I do like the muffin cupp idea as this is quite rich. This recipe is a keeper.

This is so delicious. I brought it to a party of 20 people so instead of ramekins I used Reynolds baking cups. You put them directly on a cookie sheet and they are a smidge bigger than a paper muffin cup yet smaller than a ramekin. Perfect size for after a meal. I used 1/2 tsp cornstarch instead of arrowroot, just like another reviewer suggested and I also added a bit of orange zest. Since I used the baking cups I cooked at 375 for 20 minutes. Came out yummy!
