"Found this recipe in TV Guide under 12/24/07 Highlights. Recipe is oreiginally from Padma Lakshmi. It is amazing to say the least! Think I just found my new favorite dessert! Can serve with ice cream, if desired, but it is delicious on its own."

Yummy and easy to put together. Doubled the recipe, using 2-20 oz. cans of pineapple chunks. Mixed the fruit and other ingredients directly in an 11x7 baking dish. Hint of cloves and cinnamon was a nice touch but could omit if desired. I have pomegranate trees this is a great way to use some fruit. Had never considered adding the seeds into a fruit cobbler, what a great idea. Plan to add some seeds to my next apple cobbler, too. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
