Steps:
- Make filling:
- Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in lower third. Butter baking dish.
- Stir together pears, cranberries, sugar, orange zest, brandy and allspice in a large bowl. Transfer filling to baking dish and dot with butter.
- Cover dish tightly with foil and bake 20 minutes.
- Remove foil and continue to bake until cranberries burst and pears are just tender, 15 to 20 minutes more.
- While filling is cooking, make biscuits:
- Stir together flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl, then add 3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons cream and stir just until a dough forms. Gather dough into a ball and transfer to a lightly floured surface (dough will feel dense and heavy; don't worry.)
- Gently knead dough 6 times, then pat out into an 8-inch round (about 1/3-inch thick).
- Cut out as many rounds as possible with lightly floured cutter, transferring to a sheet of wax paper. Gather scraps and pat out once more, then cut out more rounds. (You will have about 16).
- Carefully but quickly, top hot fruit with biscuits, arranging in 1 layer. Brush biscuits with remaining tablespoon cream and sprinkle with sugar.
- Continue to bake cobbler until biscuits are puffed and golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool 15 minutes before serving and top with Citrus-Infused Custard Sauce.

PEAR COBBLER
A rustic batter is dropped onto fresh pears before being baked for a healthier dessert. Using less sugar than most recipes I've seen, the crisp flavor of the pears is highlighted. My family and I enjoy this at breakfast. I leave 1 or 2 of the pears unpeeled to add a bit of color.

Tips:
- Choose ripe pears: Use ripe, firm pears for the best flavor and texture. Avoid pears that are too soft or bruised.
- Peel and core the pears: Peel and core the pears before slicing them. This will help to remove any unwanted blemishes or seeds.
- Use a variety of spices: Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices in the filling. Cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger are all classic choices, but you could also try adding cardamom, cloves, or allspice.
- Make sure the streusel is crumbly: The streusel topping should be crumbly, not too dry or too wet. If it's too dry, it won't hold together. If it's too wet, it will be difficult to spread over the pears.
- Bake until the cobbler is bubbly: Bake the cobbler until the filling is bubbling and the streusel topping is golden brown. This usually takes about 30-40 minutes.
Conclusion:
This pear cobbler with cranberry streusel is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that's perfect for any occasion. The sweet and tart flavors of the pears and cranberries are complemented perfectly by the crunchy streusel topping. Serve this cobbler warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a truly indulgent treat.
