📜 History & Background
Cobbler is a traditional dessert with roots in early American and British cuisine, where settlers adapted pie recipes using simple, available ingredients. Instead of a full crust, cobblers feature a biscuit or cake-like topping. The keto version modernizes this classic by replacing flour and sugar with low-carb alternatives, keeping the comforting essence intact.
