fruit filling

Cobbler's sweet center

Fruit filling is a sweet, often thick mixture of cooked or processed fruit used inside pastries, pies, and desserts.

It typically contains fruit pieces or purée combined with sugar and thickeners: She spooned cherry filling into the pie crust.

Canned fruit filling offers convenience, while homemade versions allow control over sweetness and texture.
