Notes
A Little Note for the Cobbler Purists:
Okay, friends — I know this isn’t your classic, old-school lemon cobbler with just a simple batter and fruit. We’ve gone a little off-script here with oats and brown sugar (yes, a nod to crisps!), but trust me — it still eats like a cobbler, just with a bit more crunch and cozy spice. Think of it as a delicious mashup made with love — Southern roots, bakery-style vibes, and a whole lot of lemony joy. 💛
