Tinned fruit is an excellent option, especially during winter when fresh is mostly imported, resulting in a lack of flavor. This cobbler recipe uses tinned pears that are spiced with fiery ginger, but you could swap for peaches or even apricots. Tinned fruit is also great for a fruit salad and you can use the natural syrups instead of sweetening with sugar.
