kitchen tip:

What’s the difference between a buckle, cobbler, crisp, and crumble? A buckle and a cobbler are nearly the same thing a deep dish fruit dessert with a cake like or sweetened biscuit topping. A crisp and a crumble are likewise similar. Both terms describe a deep dish fruit dessert with a crumbly pastry topping. It’s all good!
