Number Of Ingredients 16

Pear filling:
6 medium Bosc pears (about 3 pounds), peeled, cored, cut into 1/2" pieces
1 cup dried tart cherries
2/3 cup (packed) light brown sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
Pinch of ground cloves

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder

3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces
Vanilla ice cream (for serving)

Steps:

  • For pear filling:
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss pears, cherries, sugar, flour, lemon juice, cinnamon, salt, and cloves in a large bowl. Transfer to a 13x9" baking dish.
  • For topping and assembly:
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and 3/4 cup sugar in a medium bowl. Rub in butter with your fingers until a coarse meal forms.

Yield Makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups plus 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons plus 1 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2" pieces
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon crème fraîche or sour cream
6 cups fresh blueberries (about 2 pounds)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Whisk 1 1/2 cups flour, 3 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Add butter; using your fingertips, incorporate until only pea-size lumps remain. Gently mix in crème fraîche. Knead in bowl until a biscuit-like dough forms, 5-7 turns (overmixing will make dough tough).
  • Combine remaining 1 cup sugar, remaining 3 tablespoons flour, berries, juice, and zest in a large bowl. Toss to coat. Pour into an 8x8x2" glass baking dish or divide among six 6-ounce ramekins. Tear biscuit topping into quarter-size crumbles; scatter over berries.
  • Bake cobbler until juices are thick and bubbling and topping is cooked through and deep golden brown, 20-25 minutes for ramekins or 45-50 minutes for baking dish. Let cool for at least 1 hour.

Tips:

  • To achieve a crispy, golden brown cobbler topping, ensure the oven is preheated to the correct temperature before baking.
  • For a gooey, flavorful filling, use ripe and juicy cherries. You can use fresh or frozen cherries, but if using frozen, thaw them before tossing them with sugar.
  • If the cobbler filling is too thick, add a little water or cherry juice until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • If the cobbler topping is too dry, add a little more milk or buttermilk until it forms a soft, sticky dough.
  • Serve the cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an indulgent dessert.

Conclusion:

With its sweet and tangy cherry filling, buttery drop biscuit topping, and a hint of almond flavor, this drop biscuit cherry cobbler is a delightful dessert that is sure to impress any crowd. It's easy to make and can be enjoyed all year round, making it a perfect choice for any occasion.
